TEMPLE OF THE SACRED TOOTH RELIC

Wants to travel Sri Lanka and worried about the things to do in Kandy?? Here we are to help you to get the best experience with our experienced guides.

First, we conduct day trips to Kandy based on the itineraries that you request. It may be you just arrive at Katunayake or staying somewhere in Colombo or close by the airport. We come and pick you from the place and driving to Kandy in the morning. If we leave very early you get a chance of visiting #Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage.

In Pinnawala elephant orphanage, you can see how elephants fed and taking care of the rangers there. They have feeding hours to baby Elephants around 8 AM. But what we mostly target is arriving the orphanage around 1o AM to see them taking a bath in the river. So you can enjoy how these gentle giants enjoying the daily baths. 

After spending 1-2 hours in Pinnawala we drive to focus on the things to do in Kandy. Kandy is the hill capital in the hill country. It’s more important due to the scared place next to the lake, The Temple of Tooth Relic. As the first thing, we are heading to this most sacred temple. You will have to cover up yourself to enter this temple same as other Buddhist temples. It has offer times during the day, but you still can offer flowers to the tooth relic.

Behind the temple, we are heading to the Asian Buddhist museum which is not that popular among tourists. In this museum, you can learn a lot about Buddhism in all Asian countries. From there, we can walk to the Garrison cemetery. Garrison cemetery is a colonial graveyard with some hidden sad stories of British soldiers died with malaria long ago. It is a calm place that you get to visit in Kandy, where you can learn about colonial times in old Ceylon. And this graveyard has few important tombs of British governors as well.

#Bahirawakanda Temple will be the next destination after having lunch in the city center. It’s a Buddhist temple on a hilltop where you can see entire Kandy from the top. 

Coming back from Bahirawakanda, we take you to visit the souvenir shops and coffee shops around the Kandy Lake and streets. Also, we can arrange a boat ride in the historical lake of Kandy upon request. End of the day we will drop you to your accommodation in Kandy after a good day of seeing unseen Kandy
