Kandy

For our last day in the hill country we decided to stay in Kandy and do a bit of exploring. We visited the botanical gardens, the famous Temple of the Tooth (of Buddha) and saw some impressive local dancing and fire walking.

We stayed in a lovely hotel/guesthouse whilst in Kandy called the Clove Garden Hotel with really welcoming and helpful owners which we would definitely recommend.

On our way to Hikkaduwa the next day we visited [Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage](Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage) where 80+ injured/orphaned elephants are cared for. There were even a few babies - very cute.
