While in Kandy, a visit to the Royal Botanical Gardens is a must where you can see around 4000 species of plants. The arts and crafts center in Kandy, the main Buddhist monasteries Malwatta and Asgiriya Monasteries are places that must be visited. Kandy is a great place for souvenir shopping and to learn about its rich culture and history. After the city tour, you will proceed to Kitulagala to enjoy a White-Water Rafting session. This thrilling adventure on the white-water section of the Kelani River is suitable for amateurs as well as professionals alike. During the run, you will experience the thrill of shooting rapids and euphoria of making it through. The river's clear water is born in the heart of the peak wilderness reserve and tumbles through a rocky gorge just above Kithulgala. As the river widens, you will pass the scenic location used in the film "Bridge over the River Kwai". This is also a good place to jump in for a refreshing swim. On a clear day, you can even dive to see the remains of the actual bridge and the carriages used for the film (only for experienced divers with proper equipment).
