The botanical gardens are great for kids, lots of space to run. Or the lake for boat ride. Some places have small play areas.

Unofficial Temple Guide ScamVerified

Men approach tourists near Temple of the Tooth offering to be guides. After the tour, they demand large "donations" or guide fees (5000-10000 LKR).
