Kandy

Città dei templi affacciata sul lago e porta culturale verso gli altopiani centrali.

Introduzione

Kandy è una delle città culturali più importanti dell’isola e funziona particolarmente bene come passaggio tra il Triangolo Culturale e la regione montana.

It was the last royal capital of Sri Lanka and remains closely associated with the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic and the island’s Buddhist heritage.
