Ruins and temples photography rules

Question

Are there strict rules for taking photos at the ancient ruins and active temples in the cultural triangle

Madhushan K. · Accepted Answer

Never take a photo with your back turned to a Buddha statue. It is a major rule in Sri Lankan culture. Also ensure you wear clothes covering your shoulders and knees.
