The absolute best neighborhood for vibrant, massive street art is Slave Island, specifically around the older railway station and the narrow lanes intersecting with Justice Akbar Mawatha.
You can also find incredibly detailed, historically themed murals painted along the long boundary walls near the Viharamahadevi Park in Colombo 07.

Driver claims the meter is broken and quotes an inflated flat rate. Common on arrival at airport or railway stations when tourists are tired and disoriented.
Drivers wearing official-looking uniforms claim to be "government-approved" and charge 3-5x normal rates. They may have fake badges or ID cards.
Women with babies approach asking you to buy milk powder at a nearby shop (not cash). The shop is run by accomplices and charges 5-10x normal price.
