Unexpected but my children loved the exhibit here

Best place to enjoy the history of the kingdom of Kotte

This museum is located in the house of late Mr. E W Perera. The museum has a collection of various artefacts ranging from flags, clothes, coins, pistols, swords, pottery, jewellery, statues,... read more etc. belonging to the 14th - 19th centuries. The museum provides a great insight into the lives of people who lived many centuries ago. The place is well maintained, and we were given an excellent tour with explanations about the important artefacts on display. This is a great place to visit with kids. The museum is open daily except on Tuesdays. Street parking is available.
