Getting There - There is bus running frequently from Kandy city to the southern gate of Botanic Gardens during the day. Just hop on one the them and head out for this once in a lifetime walk. Highlight - The Royal Botanic Gardens is on its own a reason to visit Kandy. It is the largest of the botanical gardens of Sri Lanka and arguably the finest of its kind in Asia. The garden is about 58 hectares large and hosts more than 4,000 different sorts of plants. Colourful orchids, pleasant winds, tall trees. and proximity with the Mahaweli river is a beautiful treat for t he eyes. The garden is also the best place to experience and witness local lives in this historic city. When I visited there years back, I saw kids running around freely and wildly in the park, couples spending intimate time together and laughing at each other’s jokes, family enjoying quality time while having bountiful food. It was wonderful to see this amazing park filled with such a lively atmosphere.

The Kandy Lake is in the heart of the city and is considered a sacred relic of the Temple of the Sacred Tooth. Highlight - The lake is surrounded by lush greenery and a picturesque mountain stands tall right behind this beauty. When I visited there years back, I spent half of the day just walking and gazing at the enchanting body of water, absorbing the daily life around it. At the side of the Lake lies the Sacred Tooth Relic - it is always a busy place with foreign tourists, school children and hundreds of devotees clad in white who throng to venerate the sacred Tooth Relic of the Buddha. Make sure to visit there when passing through. #tigeryear2022 #urbanexplorer #awesomepic

At the Kandy we visit Udawatta Kele sanctuary

The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic is considered a sacred tourist attraction in Kandy, the ancient capital of Sri Lanka. It is a temple that is very important to Buddhism in Sri Lanka. Today, the Sacred Tooth Relic has become a sacred object of Sri Lanka that people from all over the world travel to pay homage to every day. The temple is open for visits only during two times a day, at 6 am and 6 pm each day. Therefore, Buddhists from Sri Lanka and other countries come together to wait to see the Sacred Tooth Relic for good luck in life. It is a great power of belief and faith. We have seen the images of this faith, both the atmosphere that is admirable and the beautiful and magnificent structures inside the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, which really gives us goosebumps with this great civilization. It is one of the tourist attractions in Sri Lanka that should be visited at least once in your life. #waiting for the day to travel

Kandy City is located in the Central Highlands, virtually dead center of Sri Lanka's small island. The legendary Sri Dalada Maligawa, popularly known as the Temple of the Tooth, is the city's crown treasure. The word ‘Maligawa' means ‘palace,' and the shrine is part of the palace complex. The entire edifice is at least three centuries old and has witnessed numerous kings come and go. It has experienced brutal conflicts and tranquil reigns, and it is one of the island's most historically significant locations. The Temple of the Tooth is a must-see for art and history buffs. The enormous carved entrance arch with elephants on either side greets visitors as they approach the entrance gates, which lie above the moat. A carved ‘welcome mat,' also known as a ‘moon stone,' sits on the ground in front of the entryway. The shrine's interior is adorned in intricate and finely detailed artwork. The temple transports visitors to a previous era when monarchs walked the Sri Lankan earth, with low curved ceilings of hallways and paved flooring polished by a million feet. #givethanks#ancienttomb#ancientarchitecture#historicculture#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Walking around Kandy Lake was an enchanting experience that offered a perfect blend of tranquility and wildlife. The peaceful atmosphere, framed by lush greenery and the gentle sound of water, made it an ideal escape from the bustling city. As we strolled along the path, the air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers, and the soft rustle of leaves added a soothing soundtrack to our walk. We encountered families of ducks gliding gracefully across the water, their playful antics bringing smiles to our faces. The highlight of our visit was spotting the huge lizards sunbathing on the rocks; their presence added a sense of wonder to the surroundings. These fascinating creatures blended seamlessly into the landscape, reminding us of the rich biodiversity that thrives in this serene environment. The lake itself, with its shimmering surface reflecting the blue sky, created a picturesque scene that was perfect for photography. There were benches along the way, inviting us to pause and soak in the beauty around us. We also noticed several local artists capturing the landscape on canvas, further enhancing the artistic vibe of the area. #serenegetaway
