It's world's first International Buddhist Museum..It's located next to the National Museum of Kandy and Temple of Tooth in Kandy, Sri Lanka..By visiting there we can get knowledge about buddhist cultures of Sri Lanka,India and central asian countries🇱🇰❤️

The museum contains both original relics and replicas. It has a lot of information on how Buddhism reached different parts of the world how it acclimatized to those varying cultures.

A good knowledge can be get about Buddhism in other Asian countries. Buddhist souvenirs can be bought at reasonable prices

AMAZING world class museum !! A MUST when in Kandy. A pity that few of the tourists that visit the Tooth Temple find out that the entry to this museum is included with the entrance ticket to the temple. FANTASTIC guides as well!!!
