So that most of these are made by the artists from Ambalangoda. Unfortunately there are only 3 families who know about all the techniques beyond the wooden Puppetry industry in Ambaalangoda. But they want to rescue this tradition rather than losing it. The mask of King Mahasammatha (the first king of the world), gara yaka, Maname masks, Riri Yaka and so on are exhibited in this gallery. They are giant, curious and beautiful. Various puppets are hanged on raftings can be touched and enjoyed. Marvelous clothing painted with fabrics and sewn with sequins and beads will astonish you.
