The famous Kandy View Point, also known as Arthur Seat, is located on Rajapihilla Mawatha. You can easily hire a tuk tuk from the city center to take you up the steep winding road, offering the classic postcard view looking down over Kandy Lake.

Gem Museum Commission ScamVerified
TukTuk or tour drivers take you to "gem museums" or "government-certified" gem shops. They receive huge commissions (up to 40%) on anything you buy. Prices are inflated 3-10x the actual value.
