Buddhists and tourists from all over the world flock to this shrine by the thousands. It's open only 3 times a day for 1½ hours each time. It gets very crowded. Devotees can buy and bring flowers as offerings. Many Sri Lankans believe they must visit at least once in their lifetime to score merit for their next life. But no one ever gets to actually see the tooth.
