Kandy Tooth Temple

Seen enough temples? I don't think so! Let Sam take you through this amazing site and you will not regret it. One of the Sri Lanka tour highlights. Pictures just don't do it justice :)


Sri Dalada Maligawa or the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic is a Buddhist temple in the city of Kandy, Sri Lanka. It is located in the royal palace complex of the former Kingdom of Kandy, which houses the relic of the tooth of the Buddha. Since ancient times, the relic has played an important role in local politics because it is believed that whoever holds the relic holds the governance of the country. Kandy was the last capital of the Sri Lankan kings and is a World Heritage Site mainly due to the temple.
