The museum is housed in a two storeys building. The galleries on the ground floor are arranged in a historical sequence starting from the prehistoric ages. The galleries on the upper floor are arranged on a thematic basis. Be prepared to spend a few hours in the museum if you are interested in the history of Sri Lanka as the museum houses a huge collection of artifacts. There are also many statues of Buddha. You can find one of the most well-preserved statues of Buddha from the fourth century in the lobby.

[View] I’m not usually interested in museums, but this museum is different. [Fun] The world’s largest pink diamond and other rare precious jewels will shine.

A carefully maintained museum. I received a speech (Japanese/English) at the San Francisco Peace Conference at the entrance. It considered the superiority and inevitability of freedom by giving up responsibility to Japan. As far as the Northern Territory is concerned, speculation is mixed between victorious nations and big powers in a difficult environment, and how effective his speech is, and there are many exhibits showing friendly relations with Japan's royal family.

We went to Pitta Market and it was very close. As the oldest building in Colombo, we decided to stop. It seemed abandoned...but one came towards us and showed us some of the annex buildings with a bit of a mustard smell...like a doll meeting room representing a meeting...the building is amazing but needs overhaul. They asked for your will, we went to four, we gave 200, that is, 1 euro.
