The city is most renowned for the stunningly scenic lake that lies in the center of the city and the sacred Temple of the Tooth Relic which is one of the most divine places of worship for Buddhists around the world. Kandy has relatively wetter and cooler temperatures than that of the tropical climate of the rest of the Island, especially the coastal regions.
