The wonderful Peradeniya Royal Botanical Gardens in Kandy is one of the most beautiful attractions in Kandy and spending a relaxed half day in there is greatest pleasure for all those, who like nature and animals.
Large amounts of big bats are hanging up in the trees and countless birds and other species create a unique atmosphere within this huge and well maintained 147 acres botanical garden, which was created way back in the year 1750.
The very early origin goes back to 1371 and the most famous tree in there is the Cannonball Tree, which was planted by UK King George V and Queen Mary back in 1901.
