At least once in a two months period, I have to travel along the Hurulu Wewa bund which is nearly 2700m long. I have always been fascinated by this amazing scenic view of the lake.

Huruluwewa had been constructed by great king Mahasen (275-301AD) period and has several renovations so far.
It has more than 55,000 acre-feet capacity and more than 4000 acres area.

At the end of the bund, there is the most spiritual and inspirational place called " Hurulu Dewalaya". You can have the real perception of Inspirational power and shocking feelings.

Looking good. You had captured them so nicely. I have never been Hurulu wewa. So wish to visit there as soon as possible. 😍

Truly amazing place. Many people visit the annual festival of the Hurulu Dewalaya, but I never attended. People believe that Dewalaya is a highly inspirational place for religious matters

Eventhough I have visted A'pura multiple times we never stop and wait to watch beauty of them. I should visit alone😶

It's true. Every time our visits are based on the formal agenda. Sacred Bo tree, Ruwanweliseya, Samadhi statue, etc. But except those places, there are hundreds of fascinating places. Only we should have the planned time frame. Thank you

I have bathed in Hurulu wewa a lot of times, nice photos of the lake

Great. You should have an amazing experience. It's pity that still I couldn't bathe there. Near the spill, there is a public bathing place. It is always crowded. Last week also I went to the Padikaramaduwa area. These days the lake is drying up.
Thank you.

Really nice place. When this pandamic is over we will all come to see this beautiful place

You all are welcome. It is nearly 40Km from the city limit. Nachchaduwa, Thuruwila, Mahakanadarawa & Manankattiya are so beautiful too. You can bathe with wild elephants...

yeah, I have my cousins there. Before last year we went there and there wasn't anyone, only us

Looks beautiful 🤗. I have seen lakes as a kid when we visited Anuradhapura.

Omg, that means you never visited here for a long. Only the difference is most lakes are polluted and with lots of silts😂😂😂

Yeah. I have visited there about 15 years I guess.

Only the difference is most lakes are polluted and with lots of silts

Pollution is everywhere 😥

I have been there. to both bund and the devalaya as I remembered.

You can have the real perception of Inspirational power and shocking feelings.

my aunt said the same thing when we visited there. now I remember. actually, my mother's brother lives nearby. 😊

Thank you. There are some villages descended from the time of kings. I have to visit some places for official matters often. Padikaramaduwa is one of the places I frequently visit. I feel we are so lucky to entertain those wonderful scenic views.

I really need to enjoy this environment 😥😥 peaceful place and your captures give that feeling without any shortcomings 😻

These photographs were not taken for any purposes. Only the mindset I had when passing the location. The endless waterbody of the lake, distant mount range of " Ritigala", different types of swans😍...nothing more than needed for the tranquil mindset 😍😍
thank you 👍
