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...

Sri Maha Kataragama Devalaya - Kandy
Place of worship
😠 Should have checked the review before entering. A tourist trap and scam. The temple is interesting, and the entrance fee of 200 Rupee per person seems reasonable, but there will be a guide that follows you, and then brings you to a prayer room to be blessed by a monk. After the prayer, they handed y...

Hanthana International Bird Park & Recreation Center
Park
😐 U can rely on Google Maps for this location without any worries. 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...

E.L Senanayake Children's Park

👍 The location is very accessible, but obtaining a parking spot is difficult. On weekends, the park is packed with children of all ages, yet you may still find play equipment for your child. There are numerous play tools in place. You must obtain tickets at the entrance, which I believe is necessary b...

A good place to stop at and see the amazing view of Kandy city. We stopped here on our way to the famous Sri Maha bodhi temple. The place wasn't too crowded and there are some local vendors around.
