A good place to visit and gain the knowledge. An entrance ticket needs to be purchased. Main entrance ticket can be used for both National Museum & National Museum of Natural History. The place was not crowded though it was a weekday noon hours. Staff members were supportive and friendly. Every exhibit item was explained in trilingual.

Good place to see, specially to school students
A great place for anyone who wants to explore Sri Lankan culture and history. Friendly staff and clean environment. There's a clean canteen and a good up to date health precautions also. A must visit in Colombo City.
The largest museum in Sri Lanka, the National Museum of Colombo was established in January 1877 by Sir William Henry Gregory, the then British Governor of Ceylon (Sri Lanka). Currently maintained by the Department of National Museum of the central government, the museum is home to a lot of important collections, including the crown and throne of the Kandyan monarchs. The galleries are as old as 1877, and you shall find all sorts of ancient art, carvings, and statues from Sri Lanka’s past along with a collection of antique demon masks. You can also find guns, swords, and other things from the colonial times. If you love art, you are totally in for a treat as the gallery also has in display 19th-century reproductions of English paintings of Sri Lanka. On display are the royal throne made for King Wimaladharmasuriya II in 1693, the 9th-century bronze Bodhisattva Sandals, and much more. And that is not all. There are agricultural displays and many more things that are sure to grab your attention and leave a mark in your memories.
