By Evening view a “Kandyan Folkloric Dance” performance & Temple of the Tooth Relic.
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.
After breakfast proceed to Nuwara-eliya.
Nuwara Eliya meaning "city of light", is a town in the central highlands of Sri Lanka with a
picturesque landscape and temperate climate. It is located at an altitude of 1,868 m (6,128 ft) and is
considered to be the most important location for Tea production in Sri Lanka. The town is
overlooked by Pidurutalagala, the tallest mountain in Sri Lanka. It is the heart of Sri Lankan tea
country interspersed with gushing streams and tumbling waterfalls. Such an inspiring journey as
Kandy - Nuwara Eliya Road of Sri Lanka Holidays builds up your expectations of Nuwara Eliya, the
city with the highest altitude in the beautiful tropical island. And true to the expectations, we find
breathtaking views of valleys, meadows, mountains and greenery in salubrious climate. It's hard to
imagine that Nuwara Eliya is only 180 km from hot and humid Colombo. The town's attractions
include the golf course, trout streams, Victoria Park, and boating or fishing on Lake Gregory.
Victoria Park is an attractive and well-used oasis. There are many popular water falls around the
town. Many could be visited as a part of trekking and/or hiking expeditions. Ramboda Falls, Devon
Falls, Lakshapana Falls, Lover's Leap etc. Nuwara Eliya is popular bird watching country, & there
are two excellent areas close to the town. Galway Land Bird Sanctuary covers 60 ha to the north of
Lake Gregory, while in Victoria Park, in the centre of town, 38 species have been identified. Victoria
Park also has an unusual ornithological distinction: despite its proximity to the town centre, it's a sort
of an ornithological hotspot, being visited by a number of rare Himalayan migrant birds, including the
yellow-eared bulbul, Kashmir flycatcher, Indian blue robin & the Pied thrush, Grey tit, Pacific
swallow as well as Sri Lankan endemics such as the Sri Lanka white-eye. Along the stream that
runs through the park are green sandpipers.

monsoons each year, and is one of the wettest places in the countrThe Kelani river is wide at
Kitulgala, but it is shallow apart from a deep channel near the opposite bank, so in the drier months

complex dates back to the early 1600s. Lavishly restored, it is home to shops, cafes and restaurants
