Sacred City of Kandy
Historical landmark
👍👍 The temple of the sacred tooth relic is a must visit place if you're in Kandy. It's a World heritage site, and important place of worship for the Buddhists. One tooth of Buddha is worshipped here and there is a long history how it has been moved from place to place. There is a museum within the co...

During the not-requested tour, which is given by guy who collects the shoes (500 rs for 2), the ‘monk’ will bless you and you ‘must’ write your name in the book with donation 5000 rs…all these happened so quickly and in small room, so I didnt have time to reac...

They charge Rs.600 for an adult and Rs.400 for a kid but my opinion is this ticket price is not worth what ur getting from this park. U don't have many birds to watch here and still constructions are going on. If u are really an anima...
