Kandy, nestled in Sri Lanka’s Central Province, served as the last capital of the island’s ancient kings. The city is deeply revered for housing the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa) — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Buddhism’s most sacred shrines. Surrounded by verdant hills and sitting beside Kandy Lake, it blends historical, spiritual, and scenic appeal seamlessly.
The ideal months to visit Kandy are December to March, when rainfall is minimal and the weather is pleasant — perfect for sightseeing, cultural exploration, and serene walks around the city.
