Personally from me:
Sinharaja rainforest, Sri Lanka's almost untouched virgin forest. Located in the southwestern part of the island. It is Sri Lanka's oldest rainforest. There are many entry points to the Sinharaja forest, from the southwest, southeast, east and northeast.
Entrance ticket costs (or) 600 rupees and the guide costs 600 rupees ($ 5 each). Can be combined with the port (fort) of Galle and the beaches of Unawatuna.
Approximate cost of vehicles 27 rupees / km (about $ 0.2 / km)

The Bentota resort is about half way between Colombo and Galle, so to the already published list of places I will add a SINCERE and PERSISTENT WALK on Galle Fort. An hour and a half drive - and at your disposal are the narrow streets of the ancient fort, where the Dutch left the most expressive trace - the arsenal, the Great Kirche / Grooten Kerk, the MANSION museum ... Walk along the perimeter of the fortress, starting from the AMANGALLA hotel (there you can sit down to drink tea on terrace) is about 2.5 km. There are 12 bastions in the fort, 10 of them are accessible.
On the way to Galle - Museum of masks in Ambalangoda. Entrance is free, but it is recommended to leave 100 rupees / person for the development of the exposition. Collection of ancient masks (ceremonial, amulets, puppets of the theater "kolam").
Of the unique places in Bentota itself is the Lunuganga estate by architect Jeffrey Bawa. A revelation not only for fans of landscape design, but for everyone who knows how to be surprised (and does not fly to Lanka for the sake of "ol inclusive")) Directions: car or tuk-tuk from the hotel - 15 minutes. Entrance fee - 1.250 rupees (a lot for Lanka, but worth it). On a peninsula in the Bentota Delta, a realm of greenery in a harmoniously planned garden.
Boat safaris from Balapitiya - handy on the way to Galle.
