I’m back from Sri Lanka, with lots of photos and experiences. Above is a picture taken at the Temple of the Tooth, a.k.a. Sri Dalada Maligawa. This temple is an important site for many Buddhists as it houses a relic in the form of one of Siddhartha Gautama Buddha’s teeth.

The church with the unusual, metallic spire is Evangelical Lutheran.
The story I read on the internet–so it has to be true–is that the congregation couldn’t afford to complete the steeple in the usual style. However, they received a donation of scrap iron, from which they constructed an interesting–if unconventional–spire.
