The Kandy Esala Festival And Other Cultural Photo Experience Tour
From 22nd August 2026 To 31st August 2026
Kandy Esala Perahera is held to honor the Sacred Tooth Relic of Lord Buddha, a highly revered Buddhist tradition in Sri Lanka. It is one of the country’s most spectacular cultural festivals, held annually in Kandy. The event features a vibrant procession with traditional dancers, drummers, fire performers, and beautifully decorated elephants. The festival also includes religious rituals, temple ceremonies, and colorful parades that showcase the rich heritage of Sri Lankan culture.
The journey begins in Sri Lanka’s Central Province, with two nights dedicated to photographing the Kandy Esala Perahera, followed by travel to the North Central Province to climb the historic Sigiriyarock fortress and visit the impressive Dambulla Cave Temple. A sunrise photo session is arranged with monks walking among the ancient ruins of Polonnaruwa, capturing serene cultural moments. The tour then continues to Uva Province, including a photo session with the Vedda community and colorful tea pluckers at sunrise. Finally, the tour moves to Southern Province for a two day stilt fisherman photo session at sunset and relaxing beach time on warm sandy shores by the ocean, surrounded by beautiful coastal scenery.
