Bahiravokanda
vihara
Buddha
statue
lies
within
few
meters
from
Peradeniya
is
a
huge
concrete
religlous
monument.
It
is
one
of
the
numerous
things
to
be
toured
and
experienced
in
Kandy.
It
will
take
about
20
minutes
to
reach
the
statue
from
the
Police
station
of
Peradeniya.
Travelers
enjoy
the
Buddha
statue
which
is
88
feet
in
height
with
the
amusement
created
by
the
statute.
Visitors
may
have
to
climb
few
stairs
to
this
calm
and
peaceful
spot
arranged
by
the
Buddhist
monks
of
Sri
lanka.
Even
though
you
can
see
the
white
colored
Buddha
statue
made
on
the
hill
at
a
distance
from
the
Peradeniya
city.
Certainly,
it
can
be
seen
from
almost
anvwhere
in
Kandv
city.
A
panoramic
view
of
the
Kandy
city
has
appeared
in
the
top.
Indolent
travelers
can
hire
a
tuk
tuk
or
a
taxi
to
get
into
the
top.
Perhaps
it
may
be
windy
but
surely
it
is
not
a
steep
climb.
Simultaneously
you
may
identify
the
Kandy
lake,
football
stadium,
and
tea
factory
and
dotted
stone
boulders
through
the
outlook
from
the
top.
Frequently
a
better
photo
collection
of
the
landscape
can
be
taken.
Bahiraviokanda
vihara
Buddha
statue
is
one
of
the
tallest
and
beautiful
Buddha
statues
in
Sri
lanka.
The
hill
where
the
statue
was
built
called
bahirava
kanda,
in
Sinhalese
it
means
the
devil's
hil.
A
stairway
beside
with
the
statue
can
be
climbed
for
a
greater
height.
In
fact,
it
will
be
well
worth
to
see
the
statue
lit
up
at
night.
Some
tourists
believe
that
there
isn't
anything
important.
Rather
than
that,
a
trip
to
the
bahiravakanda
vihara
Buddha
statue
will
b
a
spectacular
visit
to
Kandy's
famous
sites.
Be
sure
to
remove
your
caps
and
shoes
or
slippers
before
entering
the
premise.
Devotees
are
expected
to
worship
Buddha
statue
by
offering
flowers
and
lighting
oil
lamps.
Henceforward
the
site
is
being
developed
to
attract
more
tourists.
