Best places: Museums in Embekka, Sri Lanka

👍 It was in Kandy where the very first successful tea cultivations were made and at the Tea Museum, visitors can view for themselves all about Ceylon’s tea cultivation. Abandoned for more than a decade, the Tea Museum was refurbished by the Sri Lanka Tea Board and the Planters Association of Sri Lanka...

Open since 1986, this small museum displays equipment used to build Sri Lanka's roads.

😠 I visited this place during my trip to Sri Lanka last week. Initially the Tuk Tuk driver brought me here and the staff of this place did a sort of information tour about gems in the store. Later showed me blue sapphire, white sapphire and one Ruby. I got 3 of them over priced (220 USD) after I check...

👍 Good demo of how gems are mines, polished. Lot of options to buy from. They guide you to find out which stone is best for you based on your birth chart or date/time/place of birth and offer you right stone.
