"UNESCO World Heritage Site > The former capital of the last independent kingdom in Sri Lanka and a Buddhist pilgrimage site The picturesque sacred city of Kandy became prominent towards the end of the 15th century as the capital of Sri Lanka. Built on a plateau surrounded by hills in the country's Central Province, it was the last capital of the Sinhala kings until it was taken over by the British in 1815. Cultural capital The old city of Kandy is notable for its historic buildings, outstanding architecture, and numerous Buddhist shrines, temples, and manuscripts. It is most famous, however, for the Temple of the Tooth, or Dalada Maligawa - originally part of the royal palace complex - which is believed to house the supposed left upper canine tooth of the Buddha, one of Buddhism's most venerated relics. The tooth relic is stored in a chamber, encased within layered gold caskets. According to legend, the tooth was brought to the island in the 4th century CE. Construction of the extant ornate temple, whose function was to enshrine the relic, and its associated buildings was undertaken in phases from the early 18th century. The city of Kandy, also known as Senkadagalapura, was designated a World Heritage Site in 1988. It was and remains an important place of pilgrimage for Buddhists around the world."

"Ce site sacré du bouddhisme, communément appelé " ville de Senkadagalapura ", a été la dernière capitale des rois de Sinhala dont le mécénat a permis à la culture de Dinahala de s'épanouir pendant plus de 2 500 ans, jusqu'à l'occupation de Sri Lanka par les Britanniques en 1815. C'est aussi le site du temple de la Dent du Bouddha, célèbre lieu de pèlerinage."

"This sacred Buddhist site, popularly known as the city of Senkadagalapura, was the last capital of the Sinhala kings whose patronage enabled the Dinahala culture to flourish for more than 2,500 years until the occupation of Sri Lanka by the British in 1815. It is also the site of the Temple of the Tooth Relic (the sacred tooth of the Buddha), which is a famous pilgrimage site. 📸 © OUR PLACE The World Heritage Collection"
