Visit the sacred city of Kandy

The gateway to all of this hill-country action (and the greatest train journey in the world!) is Kandy; City of Kings, Sri Lanka’s second city and the island’s undisputed historical and cultural capital. Today, that cultural preservation lives on in the city’s many significant cultural and historic sites, forming the basis for all the very best things to do in Kandy. The best-known of these is the Temple of the Tooth relic; Buddhism’s most important religious shrine, and said to be the location of a portion of Buddha’s tooth. But Kandy is also so much more than its number one attraction; it’s a city of delightful chaos, with its bustling streets, ancient temples, colonial architecture, aristocratic gardens and the glorious Kandy lake forming the backdrop to a perfect few days amongst Sri Lanka’s lush green hills.
