Next, we visit the Bahirawakanda Temple, home to the majestic Big Buddha statue. This serene temple, perched on a hill, offers both spiritual insights and spectacular views of the surrounding landscape.

The highlight of the tour is the visit to the Temple of the Tooth Relic, one of the most sacred sites in Buddhism.
