2. To get to the village you will be riding a tuk-tuk (three-wheeled cab) approximately 12km into the countryside. The final stretch to the village can only be traversed on foot. Once you get there you will find many thatched clay huts and farming villagers. They will treat you to a welcome drink of coconut or king coconut water. Then you will be taken to see the villagers harvest coconuts. They will then show you how they remove the husk before using the coconuts for cooking. Next, you will be taken to a villager’s home, where you can experience a village-style cooking experience. The experience will include a hands-on demonstration of coconut scraping, grinding flour using a traditional millstone, roti making, and grinding spicy pol sambol on a traditional grinding stone. On completing the lesson, you can enjoy your meal in the shade of the hut, watching village life pass you by. At the end of your tour, you will be returning to Hingula Junction with your tour guide.

About Kandy

Kandy is the hill-country city of Sri Lanka, home to the Temple of the Tooth, a tree-fringed lake and a botanical garden among tea-covered hills.

Kandy was the last capital of the Sinhalese kings until the British took it in 1815. It stands around an artificial lake, about 500 metres above sea level, in the Central Highlands. The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, a UNESCO site, holds a relic said to be a tooth of the Buddha, and pilgrims bring lotus flowers each day. Drummers and dancers perform at the shrine's rituals.
