Our journey with Buddha

Our first destination for today was Bahirawakanda Temple. I was impressed with the sheer size- a staggering 88 metres tall! I liked that we were able to walk up to his head- the view was outstanding looking out over Kandy.
The stupa that we visited was the most amazing building your eyes would ever see. The reason why I say that is because of the murals inside and on the roof. The walls were carved into flowers and there would have been at least over 5 thousand I think.
Our final stop on the culture tour was Ambuluwawa Tower. Me, mum and dad were all trying to convince Fern to climb the tower, but she said no way. So we climbed it anyway- we got about 3 spirals away from the top but tapped out because the railing was below your knees and the steps about 30cm wide. So we couldn't blame Fern for not going up because it was really scary.
We all visited Kandy's cultural dancing. I liked the grand finale fire dance which included them eating fire and walking over fire. We went to a temple that has Buddha's tooth in it. We didnt see it but we did see a ceremony with all the monks going inside the tomb.Læs mere
