Things to do in Kandy

Welcome to Kandy, a cultural jewel cradled in the lush hills of central Sri Lanka, where ancient traditions, spiritual fervor, and natural beauty converge in a captivating symphony.

At the heart of Kandy lies the revered Temple of the Tooth, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a sacred repository believed to house a relic of Buddha's tooth. Join the rhythmic processions and ceremonies that envelop the temple, experiencing the spiritual pulse of the city that earned it the title of Sri Lanka's cultural capital.

Wander through the Royal Botanical Gardens of Peradeniya, a verdant oasis just outside Kandy, where exotic flora and fauna thrive amidst sprawling lawns and tranquil avenues. Take in the breathtaking beauty of the nearby Knuckles Mountain Range, inviting adventure seekers to trek through mist-covered peaks and explore hidden waterfalls.

The city's colonial legacy unfolds along the shores of Kandy Lake, where the Royal Palace and Udawatta Kele Sanctuary stand as testaments to a bygone era. Stroll through the bustling streets, where vibrant markets, local eateries, and traditional crafts beckon visitors to savor the authenticity of Sri Lankan life.
