An oasis of calm in a busy city.
皇家植物园的点评
点评：If you like your botany with a side order of Colonial history, and movie trivia, Kandy Botanical Gardens will suit you down to the ground!
These gardens, a former Royal Garden dating back to the 14th century, are beautifully laid out but not in an overly formal style. The British turned it into a Botanical Garden in the19th century.
A highlight of the visit was a guided tour led by Mr Bandara Palipana, the lead academic for the gardens and author of numerous books on the gardens and the flora of Sri Lanka (he will happily sell you one from a bundle he carries around with him!). Mr Palipana, a distinguished,older gentleman, full of anecdotes, took us on a tour of superlatives, showing us the oldest, biggest, most poisonous, most important, most beautiful, most beneficial, trees and plants.
He also regaled us with tales of Royal visits by HM Queen Elizabeth and Lord Mountbatten who lived in a bungalow in the grounds, and the garden's role in the movie 'Bridge Over The River Kwai'.
All in all, an absolute treat!.

翻译：如果您喜欢植物学，同时又想了解殖民历史和电影趣闻，那么康提植物园绝对适合您！
这些花园是一座可追溯至 14 世纪的前皇家花园，布局精美，但风格却不会过于正式。英国人在 19 世纪将其改建成植物园。
此次参观的一大亮点是 Bandara Palipana 先生带领的导览游，他是植物园的首席学者，也是多本有关斯里兰卡植物园和花园的书籍的作者（他会很乐意从随身携带的一包书籍中卖给您一本！）。Palipana 先生是一位杰出的年长绅士，他有很多趣闻轶事，他带我们进行了一次极致之旅，向我们展示了最古老、最大、最有毒、最重要、最美丽、最有益的树木和植物。
他还向我们讲述了伊丽莎白女王和蒙巴顿勋爵访问花园的故事，当时蒙巴顿勋爵住在花园里的一栋平房里，花园在电影《桂河大桥》中扮演的角色也让我们大饱眼福。
总之，这绝对是一种享受！
