My favourite cultural pageant-kandy perahara.
The Kandy perahara is a cultural pageant.People from all walks of life and religions come for it.But some people think that it is only for the Buddhists.It is wrong to make such observations. A cultural event cannot be limited to a particular group or religion alone. Buddhists go for is since it is the Tooth Relic of the Lord Buddha,that is sacred to them, that is paraded along the streets.still all of us as Sri Lankans can witness the event since our common culture binds us together.
To enjoy a cultural event religion and race is no barrier.every citizen in the county should make use of the opportunity of seeing the Kandy perahara which is an extravagant custom more that 200 years old. End.
