Kandy, don’t miss the chance to experience the vibrant Kandyan Cultural Show—a colorful display of traditional Sri Lankan dance and music that’s both exciting and deeply rooted in history. These dances are especially popular during Perahera processions, but the daily shows in Kandy give you a front-row seat to this incredible tradition. The performance includes a variety of dance styles that mimic the graceful movements of birds and animals, all inspired by the ancient ritual known as Kohomba Kapkariya. You'll also witness breathtaking acrobatics, like high jumps, spinning plates, and the thrilling fire walk that brings the show to a dramatic close.

You will also enjoy a relaxing Upper Lake Drive, which offers beautiful views over Kandy, followed by a visit to the local market square, a gem lapidary, and a few other interesting stops around town. After a full day of exploring, you will spend in Kandy.

The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa) is one of the most important and sacred places for Buddhists in Sri Lanka. Nestled within the old royal palace complex, the temple is home to a tooth relic of the Buddha, which has been treasured for centuries. More than just a religious site, this temple has deep historical and political significance—it was once believed that whoever possessed the relic had the right to rule the country. That is why the temple played a key role during the time of the ancient Sri Lankan kings. Today, Kandy is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and this temple is at the very heart of its cultural and spiritual identity. With its beautiful architecture, calming atmosphere, and deep sense of history, a visit here is a truly meaningful experience for any traveler.
