Temple of the Tooth and Devales, Kandy
Kandy's Tooth Relic Temple is the most significant Buddhist holy place in Sri Lanka, venerated by Buddhists from Southeast Asia as well. There are four shrines for Gods connected to the Buddha's Tooth Temple. These Devices, which play an important role in the processions of the Buddha's Tooth Temple, are mainly Sinhalese places of worship, whereas Tamil Hindu temples are called Kovils. However, the Devales are closely connected to Hinduism in many ways. The above-mentioned world-famous procession called Kandy Perahara originates in the Ratha Yatras held for the Hindu deities. And the priests of the Kataragama Devale in the city center are not Sinhalese Kapuralas, but Tamil Brahmins.

Pussellawa
The summit of the mountain next to Pussallawa is the site where Lord Hanuman first set his foot on Lanka. Close to Pusselawa, there is a barren piece of land in the jungle called Sita Pokuna, also known as Sita Tear Pond. Remarkably no vegetation except grass grows on this piece of land which is surrounded by a dense forest. Sita Pokuna is one of the many places believed to have been, at times, an abode of Sita during her captivity in Lanka, namely when Ravana transferred her from his palace to Ashok Vatika. Thereby Sita Pokuna is a stopover on the so-called Chariot Path. Pokuna is a Sinhalese word for the pond. Local folklore tells that the pond dried up after the departure of Sitadevi from this site.
