概要
クイックファクト: ここでは200種類以上の貴石と半貴石が展示されており、その多くはラトゥナプラの鉱山から直接採掘されたものです。博物館では3億年前の化石も見ることができ、島の地質学的歴史を物語っています。
見どころ: ここには370カラットの巨大なサファイアが展示されており、見る者の目を奪います。博物館にはインタラクティブセクションもあり、実際の採掘道具に触れたり、石のカットや研磨の工程をライブで見たりすることができます。
インサイダーヒント
- Do not forget to carry a camera, the shine of the gems is best captured in pictures taken while standing on the second floor.
- Do not forget to tip the guide, they will tell you stories that you will not find in any book.
- The diamond and sapphire room has the most crowd, go there first and then see the rest of the galleries.
- Avoid going on the weekend, Monday or Tuesday is almost deserted.
