According to Sri Lankan legends, when the Buddha died in 543 BC, his body was cremated in a sandalwood pyre at Kushinagar and his left canine tooth was retrieved from the funeral pyre by his disciple, Khema. Khema then gave it to King Brahmadatte for veneration. A belief grew that whoever possessed the tooth relic had a divine right to rule that land. Legend states the Abhayagiri vihāra was first appointed custodianship of the relic when it was brought to the island after the conflict in Kalinga. The relic came to be regarded as a symbolic representation of the Buddha and it is on this basis that there grew up a series of offerings, rituals, and ceremonies.

Night stay in Kandy

Day visit to Nuwara Eliya

The town is still known as “Little England”. It has a racecourse, the Nuwara Eliya Golf Club, and Victoria Park. Nuwara Eliya is mostly famous for the tea production in Sri Lanka. Apart from the tea plantations; Horton Plains National Park, Gregory Lake, and Sita Temple are some of the popular places to see in the town.

An 18ft statue of Lord Hanuman towers at the entrance which is the tallest Hanuman statue in Sri Lanka. This temple was constructed in 1999 and it is believed that Hanuman was searching for Sita Devi and still there are some Ramayana facts available in this area e.g. a village called “Ravana Goda” close to this Bhakta Hanuman Temple. The Tamil word for Ramboda, Rampadai, means “Rama’s force”, this is why Ramboda is believed to be the area where Rama collected his troops. Also it is believed this was the place where Lord Hanuman took rest while on his way to search Sita.

Today the lunch is on your own. Post lunch, we will visit Sita Mata Temple. Legend has it that Sitaji was held captive and hidden in this spot by King Rama to protect her from the demon king Ravana according to the Epic Ramayana. The stream that runs close to this spot is believed to be the place where Sita bathed and the rock beside it is supposed to be the place where she sat praying.
