Dit kun je verwachten

De culturele hotspot Kandy, de laatste hoofdstad van een prekoloniaal Sri Lankaans koninkrijk, is een must-visit. Naast een tour door de stad bezoek je ook een kruidentuin, een theeplantage en botanische tuinen. Aashvi, een van onze lokale gidsen, zegt: "De beroemdste en mooiste tempel van Kandy herbergt de heilige tand van Lord Buddha, een van de meest vereerde voorwerpen in het boeddhisme. Het tempelcomplex vormt een sereen contrast met de stad zelf, die een drukte van belang is met door bomen omzoomde straten vol straatventers, tuk-tuks en ouderwetse bussen.”

Op deze culturele tour val je van de ene verbazing in de andere. Als je door de centrale hooglanden trekt, stop je bij een heerlijk geurende kruidentuin in Mawanella en een theeplantage en -fabriek in Giragama. Even bijkomen met een kop echte Ceylonthee. De theeplantages die rij na rij tegen de glooiende heuvels liggen, vormen de typische beelden die je kent van Sri Lanka. Aashvi voegt hieraan toe: "Thee is 's werelds favoriete drank, als je water buiten beschouwing laat. Het wordt van alle dranken het meest gedronken. Thee van goede kwaliteit, zoals die in Sri Lanka, bevat een hoog gehalte aan polyfenol, een antioxidant die je gezondheid ten goede komt.”

Als onderdeel van je stadstour door Kandy bezoek je de Tempel van de Tandrelikwie - een UNESCO Werelderfgoedlocatie waar de tand van Boeddha wordt bewaard. Gevolgd door een bezoek aan de Royal Botanical Gardens in Peradeniya, waar meer dan 4000 plantensoorten groeien. En om het helemaal af te maken, krijg je er een traditionele lunch bij.

Kandy Day Tour with Temple of the Tooth Relic
Excursions & day trips

Kandy Day Tour with Temple of the Tooth Relic

Cultural hotspot Kandy, the last capital of a pre-colonial Sri Lankan kingdom, is a must-visit. As well as touring the city, you'll also visit a spice garden, a tea plantation and botanical gardens. Aashvi, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Kandy's most famous and magnificent temple houses the sacred tooth relic of Lord Buddha, one of the most revered artifacts in Buddhism. The temple complex is a tranquil contrast to the city itself, which is a hive of activity with tree-lined streets crammed with hawkers, tuk-tuks, and vintage buses.'It's almost non-stop action on this cultural tour. As you weave through the central highlands, you'll stop at a fragrant spice garden in Mawanella and a tea plantation and factory – for a proper cuppa of Ceylon tea – in Giragama. The sight of undulating hills covered in row after row of tea plants is one of the most emblematic images of Sri Lanka. Aashvi adds, ‘Tea is the world's favourite drink if you discount water, with the highest consumption of any beverage. Good quality tea like that found in Sri Lanka contains a high level of polyphenol, which is a health-promoting antioxidant.'As part of your city tour of Kandy, you'll visit the Temple of the Tooth Relic temple – a UNESCO World Heritage Site that's home to Buddha's tooth – and the Royal Botanical Gardens in Peradeniya, which are home to more than 4,000 species of plants.

These sand-rimmed depressions are a magnet for thirsty wildlife and among the best places to spot sloth bears, elephants, crocodiles, axis deer and, with a bit of luck, the endangered and elusive Sri Lankan leopard. Other species that call Wilpattu home include owls, eagles and painted storks.
