The last Royal Kingdom in Sri Lanka, Kandy sits in the center of the island, 485 meters above sea level, and roughly 116 kilometers from Colombo. It has a magnificent scenery surrounded by lovely mountains. Kandy, which is typically regarded as the hill country's capital, served as the final capital of the last generation of Sri Lankan kings before they were eventually subdued by the British in 1815. The English gave the name Kandy as a derivative of "Kanda Uda Rata." The ancient name of this city is Senkadagalapura, however its present name in Sri Lanka is "Maha Nuwara."
Kandy The most revered Buddhist temple, the Sacred Tooth Relic Temple, and the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sri Lanka are well recognized. Kandy was also a "Planned City" during the British colonial period of Ceylon. In light of these findings, UNESCO designated Kandy as a World Heritage Site. Today, Kandy, which has a total area of 1,940 SQ KM and is a popular tourist destination, is the second most well-known city in Sri Lanka. With its mixture of Tamil and Sinhala cultures, Kandy is important culturally. The solitary remaining relic of Buddha is housed at the Sri Dalada Maligawa, also known as the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, which was constructed inside the compound of the royal palace.

Kandyan dance. Among the things that one must do when visiting Kandy in Sri Lanka is to go for a show that has its origin, and lends its name to this unique form of dance – Kandyan dance. Its origin lies in a dance ritual, known as Kohomba Kankariya. It was widely practiced in the Kandy region much before the 5th century, even before Buddhism became a way of life. Like all things in life, this form of dance also has a legend to it. The king of Kandy had a sleep problem. Specifically, he would have a recurring nightmare which ensured that he had had plenty of sleepless nights. In desperation, Indian witch doctors were ordered from across the ocean and asked to perform a special dance for him. Sure enough, after the dance performance, he was able to get back to a good night’s sleep. In appreciation, he let the dance form flourish. Kandyan dance is more of a modern interpretation of this traditional form of dancing, performed during festivals, weddings and special occasions that call for a celebration. While it has elements of the original Kohomba Kankariya, what is performed today is a simpler affair. Traditionally, the dances were performed by an all-male troupe. However, over the years, with the popularity of the dance form spreading throughout the country, women performers have become part of the troupe, performing several dance sequences. While purists remain divided on whether Kandyan dance in its current form has been watered down, let that not stop you from enjoying a show when you visit Kandy. _________________________________________ @nofixedaddrs #nofixedaddrs www.nofixedaddress.in _________________________________________ So Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 #SoSriLanka #VisitSriLanka _________________________________________ ………. ……... …….. ……. …… ….. …. … .. . #srilanka #kandy #kandysrilanka #srilankadaily #srilankan #srilankadiaries #knowSL #mustbeSriLanka #exploreSriLanka #kandycitycentre #visitsrilanka #srilankatravel #travelsrilanka #srilankan #traditional #dance #dancing #worldheritage #worldheritagecity #culturalevent #festival #kandyan #heritage #kandyandance (at Kandyan Art Association Hall) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJp4HMPMkl1/?igshid=6xhu0qj7ah4

Khajuraho Group of Monuments It's surprising to see these humongous monuments made in an era where there were no modern tools available for people to work on the raw materials. And when I say raw materials it's no ordinary raw materials. They are like huge rocks that weighs in tonnes. But even after been so heavy no one can doubt on the workmanship performed on these monuments which any day are fit to categorised as Unesco's World Heritage Sites. Rocks intricately carved in such a way that one would think that these carvings are literally talking to one. Rocks neatly cut, diced and lifted from ground level without the help of cranes or any rock blasting dynamite to hundreds of feet just with the sheer determination of human will power. If one has not visited this place would suggest to go there once the Corona lockdown is over. . . . . No Repost without permission . . . .
