Impossible? No. Overwhelming? Yes. During Vesak, hundreds of thousands of local pilgrims descend on the Temple of the Tooth dressed in white. The queues to get inside can take hours. If you want to go inside, you MUST go at 5:30 AM right when it opens. Otherwise, just enjoy the incredible energy, the illuminated lanterns around the lake, and the free food stalls (Dansal) outside.

Make sure your hotel is walking distance to the temple, because traffic will be gridlocked.

The atmosphere outside the temple during Vesak is electric anyway. You do not even need to go inside to experience it.
