The Temple of the Tooth Relic in Kandy | Sri Lanka

January 21, 2015


I was meaning to spend only a night in Kandy before I head out to Dambulla. However—after experiencing the flamboyant bustles of the city—and fueled by a capricious wanderlust whims, I decided to extend my stay. It wasn't a bad idea, especially with Kandy situating in the midst of the plateaus of Central Sri Lanka, surrounded by rolling hills and tea plantations, the place presented an ideal opportunity for me to slow down a bit. I quickly discovered that much of the activities centers on the man-made Kandy Lake. A walk-around here, will lead you to ample heritage establishments and another of Sri Lanka’s UNESCO World Heritage Site; the Temple of the Tooth Relic.
