				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Un tout petit post sur le blog pour cette deuxième partie du sixième jour et notre arrivée sur <a title="Page Wikipedia" href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kandy" target="_blank">Kandy</a> (et je vous épargne généreusement tous les jeux de mot vaseux sur Kandy Crush Saga ou le pays de Candy).</p>
<p>Cette ville d’un peu plus d’une centaine de milliers d’habitants est située en plein centre du pays.</p>
<p><em>A short blog post for this second part of our sixth day: we arrived in Kandy. It&rsquo;s</em><em> a medium-size town (120.000 inhabitants) located in the center of the country.</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<figure id="attachment_360" style="width: 720px;" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/map2.jpg"><img class="wp-image-360 size-full" src="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/map2.jpg" alt="" width="720" height="540" /></a><figcaption class="wp-caption-text">Kandy sur la carte du Sri Lanka</figcaption></figure>
<p><a title="Page WikiTravel" href="http://wikitravel.org/en/Kandy" target="_blank">Ici encore</a>, on trouve de nombreuses traces d’un lourd passé historique. Elle fut la capitale pendant plusieurs siècles donc logiquement on y trouvera un palais royal mais c’est le lac et surtout le temple de la dent de Buddha qui sont les lieux les plus populaires.<br />
Notre chauffeur nous amène sur les hauteurs de la ville et on découvre un panorama splendide.</p>
<p><em>Here again, we find many signs of a rich cultural background. Kandy was capital city for several centuries, so it&rsquo;s not a surprise to find a royal palace. Nevertheless, I would say the lake and especially the temple of the tooth (of Buddha) are the most popular places in town.</em></p>
<p><em>Our driver takes us to the heights of the city and we enjoy this great view&#8230;</em></p>
<figure id="attachment_346" style="width: 1000px;" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/0011.jpg"><img class="wp-image-346 size-full" src="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/0011.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="563" /></a><figcaption class="wp-caption-text">Mais c&rsquo;est superbe !!!</figcaption></figure>
<p>Bon ok, je pourrai vous faire croire que c’était aussi bluffant que ça mais en réalité, on avait une journée très grisâtre et cela ressemblait en fait plus à ça.</p>
<p><em>Ok, ok&#8230; The colours were actually far less amazing in reality. It was a very grey day and the view was more like this:</em></p>
<figure id="attachment_347" style="width: 1000px;" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/0021.jpg"><img class="wp-image-347 size-full" src="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/0021.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="563" /></a><figcaption class="wp-caption-text">Sans le HDR&#8230; Ok&#8230;</figcaption></figure>
<p>Pendant les quelques heures qui nous restent de lumière du jour, on va faire un tour tranquillement à pied autour du lac Bogambara (qui n’est finalement pas si grand que ça).</p>
<p><em>During the few remaining hours of day light, we will walk about the Bogambara lake which is not too large.</em></p>
<figure id="attachment_349" style="width: 1000px;" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/0041.jpg"><img class="wp-image-349 size-full" src="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/0041.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="549" /></a><figcaption class="wp-caption-text">Un immense Buddha se profile au lointain</figcaption></figure>

<p>Puis nous arrivons à notre hotel, le Queen’s hotel. C&rsquo;est un très bel établissement de style colonial, il vaut le coût.</p>
<p><em>We check in at the Queen&rsquo;s Hotel. It&rsquo;s a very nice place with interesting colonial architecture. Definitely worth the price.</em></p>

<p>Pour info, faire attention devant l’hotel, de nombreux arnaqueurs attendent la sortie des touristes (je ne me rappelle même plus du type d’arnaque mais c’était assez prévisible vue la concentration touristique du lieu).</p>
<p>On mange dans un restaurant en face du Park Torington, le Kandy Muslim Hotel. Au premier étage, la vue est plutôt sympa et la nourriture est excellente (raisonnablement épicée).</p>
<p><em>FYI, be advised that many scammers are waiting for the tourists in front of the hotel, (I do not even remember the type of scam but it was pretty predictable).</em></p>
<p><em>We find a cool restaurant in front of Torington Park, the Kandy Muslim Hotel. On the first floor, the view is quite nice and the food is excellent (reasonably spicy).</em></p>

<p>Demain on visitera le temple de la dent.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On perd un membre de l’équipe ce matin, victime d’une vilaine indigestion, elle préfèrera rester à l’hôtel pour la journée. C’est donc à deux seulement que nous partirons visiter <a title="Anuradhapura wiki page" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anuradhapura" target="_blank">Anuradhapura</a>.</p>
<p>Il faut 80 km de route et presque 1h30 pour rejoindre l’ancienne cité impériale.</p>
<p><em>We lost a team member this morning, victim of a nasty indigestion, she prefers to stay in the hotel for the day. So we’ll be just the two of us to visit <a title="Anuradhapura wiki page" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anuradhapura" target="_blank">Anuradhapura</a> today. </em></p>
<p><em>80 km of road and almost 1h30 later, we reach the ancient imperial city. </em></p>
<p><a href="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/map-Anuradhapura.jpg"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-219 size-full" src="http://lostagain.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/map-Anuradhapura.jpg" alt="map-Anuradhapura" width="524" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>Une fois sur place, notre chauffeur négocie un guide local. Il est indispensable d’avoir un moyen de locomotion pour visiter les différents sites. Certains font ça en vélo, mais nous sommes plus fainéants ce sera en TukTuk et surtout, on bénéficie du guide pour le prix. En l’occurrence, un ancien archéologue. Oui, je sais, cela semble être un gros pipeau présenté ainsi, mais le bonhomme avait réellement une connaissance encyclopédique des lieux. Il expliquait qu’il avait du renoncer à ce job suite à une réduction de tous les budgets de l’état relatifs à la préservation du patrimoine, en particulier des services archéologiques. Au final, il gagnait bien plus ainsi.</p>
<p><em>In the parking lot, our driver negotiates a local guide. The various sites are quite distant from each other, you need a bike or a tuktuk to visit. And for the price of the transport, we’ll also have the guide. For instance, a former archaeologist. Yes, I know… It sounds like a total bullshit. He explained that he had to give up the job after a cut of all state budgets related to heritage preservation, particularly in the archaeological department. True or not, the guy had an encyclopaedic knowledge of the area and he did a great job with us this day.</em></p>
<p>Au cours des ces quelques heures à Anuradhapura, on verra une petite dizaine de sites. Je mets en lien les pages super-documentées du site Amazinglanka.com,  le plus complet que j&rsquo;ai trouvé sur le sujet.</p>
<p><em>During those few hours in Anuradhapura, we&rsquo;ve seen at least 9 sites (based on the pictures we took). For each place, I linked to the web site Amazinglanka.com, by far the best I found on the topic.</em></p>
