| Dance of Beetle (Bulath Padhaya) dancers perform along the streets of Kandy during the Esala Perahera in Sri Lanka. Beetle is the cultural food of the Sinhalese. Dancing with beetle held in both hands wrapped in white cloth symbolises an offering to be blessed by the sacred tooth relic of Lord Buddha. The Esala Perahera is held to honour the Sacred Tooth Relic of Lord Buddha which is enshrined within the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic in Kandy. |
