Kandy, known as Maha Nuwara (Senkadagalapura) in Sinhala, is nestled in the island’s heart.
As the capital of the Central Province and Kandy District, Kandy is steeped in rich history and cultural significance. Set amidst lush hills in the picturesque Kandy Valley, tropical plantations and predominantly tea estates surround the city, adding to its scenic charm.
Renowned for its breathtaking beauty, Kandy stands as one of the most scenic cities in Sri Lanka, offering visitors panoramic vistas and serene landscapes at every turn.
More than just a picturesque destination, Kandy is also an administrative and religious hub. It serves as the capital of the Central Province and the administrative district of Kandy, and it is also immensely religiously important as the site of the revered Temple of the Tooth Relic, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.Join Ceylon Escape Tours (Pvt) Ltd
