    No cameras / photographs / video permitted inside. No leaflets or books on Jaffna history. The staff are not educated on the subjects and dumb when questioned on Jaffna history. Although there is no entrance fee, the staff at the door point towards a till when exiting and block you until you drop in at least 1 yellow note. Disgusting attitude by the administrators.
