Sigiriya
Peter retraces an old Sri Lankan family holiday route inland, from Colombo to what he considers the eighth wonder of the world: the ancient palace fort ruins of Sigiriya.

Peter cooks a curry for the farmers with the popular Sri Lankan vegetable manioca. As the sun fades, Peter cooks Ambul Thial, a freshwater fish dish, by the water of Lake Habarana and is visited by an inquisitive elephant.
