    This newly built museum is a great place with lot of hostorical items, vehicles, images and paintings of Jaffna. The architecture and the atmosphere of this place is very nice and cool place to spend time. The entrance itself is an example of the excellence architecture of the place and the front area is built as a water fountain which showcase the solar system which surrounded by the statues of Jaffna Kings. Its a must to go to place to get the historical glimpse of Jaffna.

    Newly built three stories building which reflects the cultural values of Sri Lankan tamizh. They are charging 100 rs per head though not price worthy. Need to improve the parking facility and safety crossing signs.

    This is a reasonable museum with a lot of potential. Very low entrance fee (100 rupees). There are a lot of exhibits but not many information signs to tell you what they are. Upstairs there are lots of interesting photos and paintings, again, more information signage would be good. Interesting collection of old cars and agricultural machinery outside.

    A place to understand the Hinduism and its history and traditions. With the black rock carving and buildings can be considered as a place to understand the concepts of Hinduism.

    It is one of the remarkable places in Jaffna. Old culture and traditions, movements are protected in the form of Art and artifacts. This place is a creation of hard work of good people. All citizens of Ceylon much take priority to safeguard and develop the place.
