Sri Dalada Maligawa or the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic is a Buddhist sanctuary in the city of Kandy, Sri Lanka. It is situated in the regal castle complex of the previous Kingdom of Kandy, which houses the relic of the tooth of the Buddha. Since old circumstances, the relic has assumed an imperative part in nearby legislative issues since it is trusted that whoever holds the relic holds the administration of the nation. Kandy was the last capital of the Sri Lankan lords and is a World Heritage Site for the most part because of the sanctuary.
Bhikkhus of the two parts of Malwatte and Asgiriya direct day by day revere in the internal council of the sanctuary. Customs are performed three times every day: at day break, at twelve and in the nights. On Wednesdays there is an emblematic showering of the relic with a natural planning produced using scented water and fragrant blooms called Nanumura Mangallaya. This blessed water is accepted to contain recuperating powers and is circulated among those present.
The sanctuary managed harm from bombings by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam in 1998 however was completely reestablished each time.
