Kandy museum photography rules.
2 Answers from travellers
Yes, you are generally allowed to take photographs of the exhibits, but you absolutely must turn your camera flash completely off to prevent damaging the fragile historical fabrics and paints.
Always double check with the security guards near the entrance, as they sometimes require you to purchase a very cheap additional photography permit tag for your camera.

TukTuk or tour drivers take you to "gem museums" or "government-certified" gem shops. They receive huge commissions (up to 40%) on anything you buy. Prices are inflated 3-10x the actual value.
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).
