The Temple of the Tooth which is commonly known as "Sri Dalada Maligawa" is situated in the city of hills, Kandy. It is an important shrine for Buddhists as it holds the tooth relic of Lord Buddha. It is famous for its carvings and the beautiful art that is unique to Sri Lanka. The most important part of the Dalada Maligawa is the octagon (Pathirppuwa). The Sri Dalada Maligawa is the most sacred temple in the whole of Sri Lanka. Thousands of people line up each day to get a glimpse of its majesty. The tooth relic was brought to Sri Lanka in the 4th century ADdue to the cruel war in India. The ruler of India, King Guhasiva, was afraid that he might lose the battle and therefore loose the tooth relic. So the King decided to send the tooth relic to Sri Lanka because it was a strong Buddhist country. King Guhasiva trusted Sri Lanka to treat the tooth relic highly because there was a strong relationship between the two countries. Prince Dhantha and Princess Hemamala brought the tooth relic to Sri Lanka. The tooth relic is now kept on the top floor of the "Vadahitina Maligawa" so that thousands of people could worship it. The arrival of the tooth relic had a great influence to Sri Lanka. The "Vadahitina Maligawa" is commonly known as the Tooth Relic shrine. It holds the tooth relic of Lord Buddha. It is situated in the center of the courtyard. The stairway that leads to the "Vadahitina Maligawa" is decorated with moonstones, and carved floral designs. It is two stories high. It was re built by King Wimaladharmasuriya II. And was renovated by King Narendrasinghe in the 18th century. King Keerthi Sri Rajasinghe converted the "Vadahitina Maligawa" into a beautiful structure. He is also responsible for the beautiful ivory carvings on the doorways of the shrine
