Visiting the Symbolic Representation of the Living Buddha – Pic Journey 10… | |
“Who’s been to the Dalada Maligawa or Tooth Temple?” I know it’s one of the silliest of questions I could’ve asked you but I had to ask it to enter my fairy tale. I’m sure most of the Sri Lankans regardless of their religion have visited this magical place on earth where the Left Canine Tooth Relic of Lord Buddha that was retrieved from the sandalwood funeral pyre of Kushinagar is kept. This is also visited by many foreigners and as the statistics reveal it is the second place visited mostly after the Elephant Orphanage at Pinnawala. At an estimate about 80-90% of all the tourists pay a visit to Dalada Maligawa. “Ok now how many of you have been fortunate enough to see the Tooth Relic Dagoba?” |

We bought some required item from the town and waited for the Poththapitiya bus. It took a long time to get a bus and we decided to got to the destination by three wheelers. (500/- per three wheeler). We reached the Poththapitiya town by 3.30pm |
