Temple of the Tooth / Fogtemplom

Kandy is a significant Buddhist centre due to the worshipped relic, Buddha's tooth, being guarded in this city. Normally it's quite expensive to visit the temple but some volunteers can go in for free; it so happened that at 5:30 am they thought I was one of those volunteers so I was allowed in at the local price, nada. I liked the temple twice as much.

Kandy jelentos buddhista kozpont, mert itt orzik Buddha fogat, ami az egyik legfontosabb buddhista ereklye. Altalaban viszonylag draga bejutni a templomba, de nehany onkentes ingyen mehet be; ugy esett, hogy reggel fel 6-kor azt hittek rolam is, hogy egy ilyen onkentes vagyok es igy a helyi arat fizettem, nullat. Igy ketszer annyira tetszett a templom.
