We still in Mahiyanganaya & first we went to “Mahiyangana Raja Maha Viharaya”. After that we went to Sora Bora Wewa.

On 26th June I had an office work at Kandy. I took “Podi Menike” train from Fort at 6.00 a.m. As usual it packed with people. Around 8.45 a.m it reached to Kandy.

From Dambulla we came to our relatives place in Kaikawala. We stay 2 days in there. Next day morning we went to Alu Viharaya & Buddha Statue in Seru Gala. After that we went to Ambilla Raja Maha Viharaya.

We stay 2 day’s in Mathale & next day morning we went to our next destination – Mawanella. On the way we visited Dalada Maligawa , Kadugannawa Railway Museum , Dowson Tower & Kadugannawa Mawela Viharaya.

We got the news about poor family in Sandunpura – Dehiattakandiya. We plan to visit there to see that family. We took Mahiyangana bus from Pettah. It leaves 12.00 p.m & reached to Mahiyanganaya at 5.15 a.m.

“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?”
