As someone who looks for offbeat experiences when travelling, a recent trip to Sri Lanka had me stop at the puppet museum located in Balapitiya.

Each of the displays here is enclosed in a glass case and depicts a story from history. The small museum has an interesting collection of string puppets and puppet art. The museum explains the production process of a string puppet and has a fairly large display of puppets that have a connection with Sri Lanka.
