Kandy Lake, also known as Kiri Muhuda or the Sea of Milk, stands as one of Sri Lanka's most iconic attractions. Constructed in 1807 by King Sri Wickrama Rajasinghe beside the Temple of the Tooth, this beautiful artificial lake has become a tranquil retreat despite its reduced size over the years. With fishing banned to protect the lake, it now offers a peaceful environment ideal for leisurely strolls or jogs along its shaded paths. Visitors can enjoy stunning views of the surrounding hills and towns, making it a perfect spot for relaxation and sightseeing
