Kandy is on the Unesco World Cultural and Natural Heritage List. There is an exceptionally mild climate in the city and its vicinity, which is of utmost importance for newcomers from Europe. Walking around Kandy I found out that its Sri Lankan name Maha Nuwara, which is a big city, is not exaggerated at all. The biggest attraction of Kanda is Sri Dalada Maligawa - the Temple of the Relics of the Tooth of the Buddha. How important this place is for Sri Lankans can be realized by watching the crowds of faithful pilgrims to the holy places within the temple complex.
