The museum not far from the Buddha Tooth Temple tells the history of the British colonial period. The lights are slightly dim. On the contrary, there is a sense of vicissitudes when you walk in. You can visit together on the way. The visit is mainly in English. If you want to visit seriously, it is best to do your homework. From gems to jewels, swords to crowns, the museum is filled with well-preserved exhibits from the Kingdom of Kandy, and the museum is now re-located inside the temple, a must-see for intellectuals, new historians and students.

The museum is a white building with a visual history of more than a century. The exhibitions of cultural relics are divided into categories. When you walk into different exhibition halls, you will see different themes. They also have English introductions. It is a good experience.

In addition to the China Pavilion, the others are all in English. It is recommended that English is very good to see. I almost only looked at the exhibits and didn't know what it meant. However, there was a little water in the China Pavilion, but I found that the Buddhas in the world looked different. You can enter the museum for free, a ticket to the temple entrance. Well designed and well furnished, Buddhist artifacts are grouped according to the state. We spent more time in this temple! Worth a visit.
