About
In Sri Lanka, Buddhist Museum operates as a museum on Hemamali Mawatha, Kandy, Sri Lanka.
The museum is known for its collection relating to Buddhist heritage, and Kandy sits in the central highlands among the island's ancient sites. A 4.6 out of 5 average from 305 reviews indicates how consistently visitors respond to what is on display. Its website at http://www.sridaladamaligawa.lk/ accompanies the listing.
First-time visitors should allow a proper stretch of time to work through the exhibits, since the material rewards slower attention than a quick walk-through. Kandy is reached by road from Colombo, Negombo, Galle, Bentota, Mirissa, Unawatuna and Arugam Bay, so the museum fits naturally into a wider island itinerary.
Sri Lanka has a tropical climate, with two monsoon systems bringing rain to different coasts at different times, and the southwest and west coasts are driest from December to March while the east coast is best from May to September. The island lies in the Indian Ocean with a central highland mass and coastal plains all around.
