The last kingdom of Sri Lanka, the hill capital surrounded by a range of high mountains and rivers, is a part of the country that displays the synergy between ancient religious structures considered world heritage sites and modern metropolitan buildings. The city is home to the Sacred Tooth Relic hosted at the Temple of the Tooth, which is the most important place of worship for Buddhists in Sri Lanka.

The whole town is centeredaround the temple, the lake and offers travellers a sense of the traditional and religious diversities present in the country.A short trip down to Kandy will never be regretted as it is an experience in itself for one thing, going up curvy mountains and mist covered hill tops, all with breath taking and spectacular views. Don’t miss the world’s most exciting procession the yearly Kandy Perahera in August.
