I am in Polhena, not Kandy centre. First offering vs mid-morning. What is sane with traffic?

Temple, kovil, mosque: cover shoulders and knees. Polhena street is mixed. Inside is not. Shawl in the bag. Hats off, shoes on the rack.

A cheap wrap saved us twice. Nobody cared on the beach. They cared at the door.

If you are tired, stay near the bus stand or town centre in Polhena and skip the extra viewpoint. Pull cash in Colombo, Kandy, or Galle first. Cards are a maybe, not a plan.
