KANDY, SRI LANKA - KANDYAN DANCE AND TEMPLES | VLOG #40

Kandy is one of the cultural cities of Sri Lanka. While the botanical garden and the Kandy viewpoint are interesting to see, most people visit the Temple of the Tooth, the big Buddha or attend the famous Kandyan Dance. Although we felt that Kandy wasn't our favourite place of Sri Lanka, we did try our best which ended up in a lot of laughing as you'll see 😉
We stayed at the Urban Castle, the place you must stay in if you're going to Kandy: www.urbancastlekandy.com/

    The Botanical Gardens in Peradeniya are absolutely beautiful Its near the University as is the place I stay at every year Summit View , Its on top of a Mountain with the most stunning views .Their Pool is wonderful and the food very good and reasonably priced. Its a shame you didn't spend time at the Gardens

    Kandy is smelly? I never noticed that. However, the air quality is a bit low compared to other cities because it's traffic is dense and not very windy like Colombo (near the sea).

    Thank you Hugo and Noemie for your vlog! Your day reminds me of Robert Burns' poem To a Mouse, written in 1786, "The best laid plans of mice and men oft go astray." You tried your best and it was interesting to see the beautiful lake, the Big Buddha with the panoramic views and the dancing at the cultural show. I enjoyed seeing Hugo's drone images and I like your music. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us! I always look forward to watching your vlogs! Thank you! Thumbs up!

    Hey Mike! Thanks again for a wonderful comment. We did our best and that's what counts for us. Our next vlogs will be in cultural places as well, so who knows we'll learn even more about it what we like to vlog about and what we don't. To be continued!

    In my opinion you should have gone to see Sri Dhalada Maligawa, It's really beautiful and you can learn a lot about the nation's history & culture. But still the best!...

    If you go to Habarana or Dambulla, check Tree Tops Jungle lodge Habarana or Elephant Watch Hut Habarana. You can literally sleep with elephants in the night. Plus you can do a night safari which is awesome.

    If there is nothing to say good about it it's better to be silent that's what mom said to me when I was young.

    Most of the video is about your faces, and not enough views about the places.
