Kandy City Tour with Mahaweli

Kandy is where history and tradition are combined to create a culture. Capital of the last Sinhalese kingdom, which fell to the British in 1815 after defying the Portuguese and Dutch for three centuries. It took the British another 16 tough years to finally build a road linking Kandy with Colombo. Do insist on spending at least a Day in the misty hill city that looks good even when it’s raining. Some days Kandy’s skies seem perpetually bruised, with stubborn mist clinging to the hills surrounding the city’s beautiful center piece lake.
