If you are looking for Sri Lanka-branded gifts and souvenirs, this is the perfect place to visit. It is popular among travelers, even more so than locals. The store features a large collection of mostly handcrafted items. The place is well-maintained, and the staff is friendly and helpful. If you are a traveler, I recommend seeking assistance from the staff rather than wandering around aimlessly. While some gifts may seem a bit expensive, there is a wide range of prices available. Additionally, there is ample parking inside the premises.

Great place to get souvenirs for friends and family. The store is large and they have many beautiful things for you or your loved ones. Some items include clothing, hand carved items, precious stones, jewelry, ayurvedic oils, artwork, collectibles and much more. I visited this store in 2023 when I first came to Sri Lanka and again during my current trip to pick up gifts not only for myself but for friends and family back home.
