Dambulla and Kandy

Day 4.

Today started off with Dambulla, which has some natural and man-made temple caves. The natural caves apparently have been used by the Buddhist monks since before the first century BC.



Afterwards, there was a herbal garden. Didn't get any pictures of that, but it was pretty neat to see a lot of the various herbs and spices up front and in person.

Then came the drive to Kandy and the Royal Botanical Garden, and I got some neat pictures of some pretty exotic plants.



Last big thing was the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy. Apparently, this contains one of Buddha's teeth, kept hidden away in a container, and is only ever revealed every 5 years.
