Going through some of the schedule and I am looking up the places we are visiting so I can start planning what to pack and how to prepare my outfits so I can be respectful of the culture. We are going to be visiting the Temple of Tooth in Sri Lanka which is a sacred Buddhist temple which is located in Kandy. It says you must have clothes that cover your legs and your shoulders, and remove your shoes.
This is important because it actually contains the tooth of a buddah. However, we can not actually see the tooth because it is kept in a gold casket. There are certain times for prayers and worship but most people go early in the morning. Overall, after researching I now have a much better understanding of the importance of the clothing because it is very disrespectful to their religion.
