Sri Dalada Maligawa, also known as the Temple of the Tooth, is a sacred Buddhist temple in Kandy, Sri Lanka, housing the relic of the tooth of the Buddha. It's a major pilgrimage site and a popular tourist destination. The temple complex is generally accessible, but be prepared for crowds, especially during puja (offerings) times. Solo visits are common, allowing for personal reflection, but guided tours offer deeper insights into the temple's history and significance. Expect modest dress requirements (shoulders and knees covered) and the need to remove shoes before entering. The best time to visit is during the annual Esala Perahera festival (usually July or August), although it will be very crowded. A typical visit lasts 2-3 hours, and the entrance fee for foreigners is approximately LKR 2000. Photography is generally allowed, but restrictions may apply in certain areas.
