The holy city of Kandy is the ideal place to learn experience and capture Sri Lanka's history, religion and culture. The sacred and most popular attraction in the city is the Sri Dalada Maligawa, which is more commonly referred to as the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic. The temple is known for holding a relic of Buddha's tooth, and this relic is often paraded during a large scale religious parade known as a perahera, where dancers, acrobats, and decorated elephants walk through the streets in a massive celebration. Many hotels in Sri Lanka offer packages and tours to witness the beauty of this religious celebration.
