Urban Wetland Park

Nawala

About

Urban Wetland Park is situated in Nugegoda, and it is a wetland of Kirulapone Canal. Kirulapone Canal is a branch of Diyawanna Oya, the mother of a number of wetlands. Compared to other wetland parks around Colombo, this is fairly small and not very rich in animal diversity. But it is a great getaway from the rush and the noise of the busy city.

This area was previously used as a market place for sand and bricks. Therefore, the place is also called ‘Weli Park’ (weli means sand in Sinhala). The place was later converted into a beautiful wetland park with the involvement of the government, and it is now maintained by the Sri Lanka Navy.
