Hey guys, I'm a 21M from Colombo, planning on visiting kandy for a few days (maybe 2 nights) with a couple of friends, and I was wondering what i can do over there.
Planning on staying right at the city center.
What places can I visit? And I where can we properly socialize with similar aged Kandyans? Any ideas on what kinda things to do or events to look out for? Planning on going sometime in july/ early august the latest. Give me all the details whether it be cafes/social clubs/events/ nightlife or even good camping, hiking spots, lesser known local attractions near the city.

Also does anyone know a reliable place to rent out some bikes or scooters or a car as a local without any major hassle? (even electric bicycles are alright)

A side ques: what do the uni students of the several local unis in the area do for fun? any social events from these unis coming up (pera/sliit etc) in July /August?

Feel free to suggest things that I haven't mentioned up in the description. Thanks!

Sri Lanka has plenty of places to enjoy the outdoors, and I was wondering what kinds of outdoor activities people here take part in. Whether it's hiking, camping, cycling, kayaking, birdwatching, surfing, or anything else, I'd love to hear about it.

What challenges or problems have you faced while doing these activities? They could be anything from access and facilities to safety, weather, wildlife, or even finding people to go with.

I get the impression that outdoor recreation isn't as common here as it is in some other countries, but I could be completely wrong. I'm curious to hear what everyone else's experiences have been.
