- Susantha Spice and Herbal Garden - Your first stop will be at Susantha Spice and Herbal Garden. This authentic Ayurvedic Sri Lankan store offers local natural products exclusively to tourists and international customers. Established over a decade ago, Susantha Spice and Herbal Garden has grown steadily to become the premier spice garden along the Kandy-Colombo route. Featuring more than 200 varieties of exotic fauna and flora, with a focus on spices, the garden spans an acre of meticulously maintained land. Herbal healing is a 5,000-year-old medicinal practice in Sri Lanka, with the term “Ayurvedic” combining the Sanskrit words ayur (life) and veda (science or knowledge). These herbal remedies aim to promote wellness and health by harmonizing the mind, body, and soul.
- Embilmeegama Tea Factory - Next, proceed to the Embilmeegama Tea Factory. “Embillian Tea,” the authentic factory-fresh pure Ceylon tea, comes directly from the family-owned “Embilmeegama Tea Factory,” which was established in 1940 with great enthusiasm and dedication to producing the finest quality Fresh Ceylon Teas.
After lunch, continue to the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic. The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic is the most revered site in Sri Lanka. Locally known as the Sri Dalada Maligawa, this place of worship was constructed in the 16th century AD. Housing the sacred tooth relic of Lord Buddha in this sanctuary, local tradition has long held that whoever possesses and protects the sacred relic is thereby empowered to rule the country.
- Bahiravokanda Vihara Buddha Statue - Later, visit the Bahiravokanda Vihara Buddha Statue. Large statues of Buddha are prevalent throughout Asia. This particular statue is an important religious monument to local Buddhists and is honored with the lighting of oil lamps and garlands of beautiful and brightly colored flowers. The statue stands 88 feet tall and, on clear days, can be seen proudly from Kandy city, indicating its significance.
- Kandy View Point - Next, head to Kandy View Point. Located at Rajapihilla Mawatha near Kandy Lake, about a 1 km steep climb to Rajapihilla Mawatha, there is a spot where you can see Kandy city in a panoramic view with the lake and Sri Dalada Maligawa, a very popular tourist area. Restaurants and souvenir shops are nearby.
