This is very newly Build Temple including Stupa, Image house,Bodhi Tree, Golden color Buddhist status and Relics. The view is very beautiful & better to go morning or evening if it is sunny day. Thank you.

This monastery is located on a beautiful hillside just outside of Kandy proper. When you visit the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy, stop by our monastery in Kundasale to talk with the monks there. You will have a chance to see the sacred stupa and Bodhi Tree monuments.

Sri Dalada Maligawa (Sinhala: ශ්රී දළදා මාළිගාව) or The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic is a Buddhist temple in the city of Kandy, Sri Lanka. It is located in the royal palace complex which houses the Relic of the tooth of Buddha. Since ancient times, the relic has played an important role in local politics because it is believed that whoever holds the relic holds the governance of the country. Kandy was the last capital of the Sinhalese kings and is a UNESCO world heritage site partly due to the temple. The temple which houses the Sacred Tooth Relic of the Buddha is one of the holiest shrines in the entire Buddhist world.
Fantastic temple and we were lucky enough to have an excellent bespoke guide who was able to explain the history of the Sacred Tooth Relic and all it means to the Sri Lankan Buddhist followers. A definite must to visit and try to plan your visit during one of the thrice daily "prayer" times.
