A Serene Encounter at Bahiravokanda Vihara Buddha Statue in Kandy

#holidayitinerary Perched on a hilltop overlooking the city, the Bahiravokanda Vihara Buddha Statue is one of the most striking landmarks in Kandy. The enormous white Buddha can be seen from many parts of the city, and up close it is even more impressive. Reaching the site involves a bit of a climb or a short drive along Bahirawa Kanda Road, but the views from the top make it all worthwhile. From here, you can take in sweeping panoramas of Kandy, surrounded by lush green hills.

The statue itself radiates a sense of peace and calm, with a gentle expression that adds to the spiritual atmosphere. Visitors can also explore the small temple nearby for a more immersive experience. It is a perfect spot to enjoy both cultural significance and breathtaking scenery in Central Province.
