The Temple of Buddha Tooth in Kandy, Sri Lanka, was listed on the World Heritage List in 1998. The Temple is located on the beautiful Lake Kandy in the center of the holy city of Kandy. The temple holds the treasure of Sri Lanka's town and country, one of the only two spiritual teeth left by Buddha Sakyamuni. Walking in the Buddhist temple, white dress white men and women sitting on the table, reciting scriptures; The orange-clad monks walked by, the dark skin against the white walls...the lingering cigarettes, the solemn bells and drums, the pure eyes, the solemn atmosphere, let your heart slowly become calm and peaceful. The inner temple is divided into two floors, the lower floor of the Buddha Hall, the golden glory. The upper temple is supported by many Hindu pillars, and the temple is hung with Buddhist flags, consisting of blue, yellow, red, white, orange and the first five colors of mixed colors, which are six colors released by the Holy Body when the Buddha was made into Tao. Follow the stairs to the second floor to the dark room where the Buddha's teeth are placed. The table in front of the door is filled with various lotus flowers provided by the believers. The lotus is the national flower of Sri Lanka, and locals usually come to the temple with lotus flowers. The Buddha's teeth are stored in the seven-story golden pagoda. This year, the Buddha Dental Festival celebrations began on August 17 and lasted until August 31. Elephants carrying the Buddha Dental "Sheli Tower", from Kandy Buddha Dental Temple, cruised the city to let the people enjoy the glory of Buddha Dental. On the Buddha's teeth festival, from nose to foot are decorated with exquisite edging fabric, the most gorgeous and domineering leader elephant back is loaded with huge Huali, Huali is the much-anticipated collection of Buddha teeth Sheli dumplings. Buddha was cremated in the Mallas area in 543 BC, and the local officials in northern India shared the Buddha's Sheri. The son-in-law and daughter of King GUHASIVA in the 4th century AD secretly brought to Sri Lanka to give to the King of Ceylon in a hair knot. It was worshipped by the temple, originally built by King Vimalada, and now built during the reign of King Kritisriya Siha. Another Buddha tooth is the Buddha Tooth Tower of Lingguang Temple in the eight major places in Beijing.

When visiting Lake Bella, I went in and visited. There were people selling tight at the entrance, 400 rupees per person, not too expensive. I had to take off my shoes when I entered the temple. Fortunately, I wore chopsticks. If I didn't burn the soles of my feet at more than 30 degrees of heat. There are many Buddha statues in the temple, some very similar to those offered in China, and the president has seen it after reading it.

Lakes
_cm***17
Kanti is Sri Lanka's second largest city, a Buddhist holy place. Kanti Lake is in the center of the city. It is a huge artificial lake dug by a rice field and is also one of the city's most famous tourist attractions. The scenery on Kanti Lake is beautiful, and there is a small island in the center, which is said to be the place where the Queen lived. The lakeside tropical flowers and trees are lush, blooming, all purple and red. Next to a lake-ring road is the Buddha Tooth Temple of Sri Lanka's national treasure temple. Kandy Lake reflects the Buddha Tooth Temple, and the Buddha Tooth Temple is dotted with Kandy Lake. The two are intersected and perfectly harmonious, forming the most beautiful scenery of Kandy Ancient City. In the distance, there are many English buildings dotted between the mountains and forests, and tourists and local residents from all over the world take a walk along the lake and enjoy the beautiful lakes and mountains.

The Ganggalama Temple in Colombo is displayed in various bodhisattvas, some smiling, some kind and kind, giving you warmth and calm. People come in and out, there are weddings, and Buddhism is a Sri Lankan lifestyle.

In Sri Lanka, although compared to China's infrastructure is very backward, there is no modernization and no highway, and there is no high-speed rail all over China. There are three-wheeled motorcycles in the Cultural Revolution period in China. The exhaust of this car is the main leader of the fresh air pollution. Fortunately, Sri Lanka is in the middle of the sea. The sea breeze blows the dirty air to nowhere. I don’t know. Anyway, the air in Sri Lanka is fresh. Always clear. The streets are not without congestion, and there are not many people who do not obey traffic order, which also makes me wonder why? With this question, I began to observe. First of all, I didn't see police officers all over the city and Chinese-like co-policemen (Chinese people like to call them two). So who is managing public transportation in the city? Later, every time I passed the crossroads, I looked for the police, did not see... So strange, is the quality of the Sri Lankans belonging to the Third World so much higher than our Chinese? How many people would obey traffic rules so perfectly in Beijing, without camera surveillance and huge fines?

The animal is located on the outskirts of the city and takes a taxi for about 20 minutes. In the hot summer, in addition to smelling the animal's body, many beasts such as brown bears and lions hide in the shadows to sleep, and can't see them moving around lively. If time permits, they will definitely not visit in the big sun next time.

This is one of the many temples we have visited, a special holy place, one that Buddha visited when he came to Sri Lanka, with a huge reclining Buddha, which is probably one of the most worth visiting among the many temples in the country. This Kalania Temple is one of the places where Buddha came to Sri Lanka. It is also a very relaxing place. Many foreigners used to come here often. It is a good place to visit in the Colombo area. There is a lot to visit here, there is a museum. This temple is very close to the Kranya River and also passes through it.
