A Day in Kandy: Maanvi’s corner

December 25, 2023 by Dr.Rohith Reddy

When my Pappa told me that we are going to Kandy.. I thought that place is filled with candies 😉

In the streets of Kandy near Tooth Relic Temple

Tooth Relic temple: Tooth Relic Temple is a must visit place in Kandy. The most revered site in Sri Lanka. The shrine overlooks the vast expanse of the Kandy Lake.

The importance of this temple is that Lord Buddha’s tooth has been preserved and hidden within a gold casket. We visited the Temple during noon. My parents were amazed to see the well protected inner shrine where it is kept.

Hey Pops, we’re taking boring pictures.. let’s show some energy yayie!!

Walk around the Kandy lake also known as ‘Sea of Milk’ was beautiful and very peaceful. It is surrounded by Mara trees and it has a beautiful walking path. There are lot of venders who sell snack and drinks in between. My parents tried some local foods around the temple. The soothing sounds and calming waters of the lake will definitely erase the hustle and the bustle of the town.

Teaching my pappa how to meditate..!
For my parents it was an exercise but for me the drive around this lake was so good.. saw so many ducks and birds

Gem Factory and Museum: My Mom wanted to visit Gem museum, There we saw a video documentary of how Rare earth materials like gems, rubies, graphite are mined in Srilanka.

Kandyan dance and cultural program: The dance performance was filled with so much of energy. The drumming, juggling, acrobats & their colorful costumes was very impressive.

Kandy viewpoint:

Few tips before you visit Kandy will make your travel smoother with a better experience:

Adults don’t have the privilege to have prams/ strollers, always carry umbrellas, sunscreens, sunglasses with you.
Strollers are not allowed inside the sacred temple, get ready to carry your child on your shoulders
Carry water bottles
Don’t buy tickets of tooth relic temple from strangers
