About Beddagana Wetland Park in Colombo

Located just outside of the city limits of Colombo, Beddagana Wetland Park is a nature park stretching over an area of 18 hectares. This natural expanse of Beddagana lies within the urbanized administrative capital Sri Jayewardenepura Kotte. The new Parliament building is in proximity to this lovely wetland park. It’s a green mosaic of wetlands surrounding the beautiful waterfronts of Diyawanna Lake.

The is home to about 100 plant species, 80 bird species, 20 species of fish, 10 mammal species, and five species of amphibians. Beddagana Wetland Park is located within the Sri Jayewardenepura Kotte Bird Sanctuary and hence, is a popular nesting site for many endemic birds, butterflies, dragonflies, and mammals. A variety of floral species is common to this wetland, with endemic and threatened habitat. From August to April, the park is a popular stopover for migrant birds heading south each year. Birdlife can be observed during this dry spell of the year. The park is operated by Urban Development Authority of the capital city.

From the main entrance, there are two separate paths in the park visitors can explore. A wooden path bordered by Diyawanna Lake is created so that natural habitat remains protected. A short walk on this path allows visitors to observe a vast array of plant and bird species. A duck-filled pond nearby adds to the beauty of the park’s peaceful environs. The second path, known as the Forest Trail, takes visitors into the heart of the park via a leafy dirt trail. At the end of this track, a wooden deck named Diyawanna Floating Deck allows a beautiful view of the wetlands. A short walk past the park school, the Migratory Bird Trail is a great place to spot different bird species. All in all, Beddagana Wetland Park is a perfect spot to come close to nature.

Saravanakumar Kumarasamy

Saravanakumar's 5 days trip to Colombo

Our trip was really good. The srilankan tour agent helped us a lot 'dilini'. A spl thanks to her and the tour guide & driver. The only one which I don't like is the travel triangle agent, I forgot her name. She was super rude and acting like a PM (no time to speak etc etc). I never had this kind o

f experience with anyone.

Moushumi's 6 days trip to Colombo

I would say my overall trip was fine but there is scope of improvement when it comes to itinerary and planning. We could not cover a lot of points irrespective of the fact we started everyday as early as 9am. We barely got any time to shop in Colombo, in fact Lotus tower was the only place we could

vidit after our arrival to Colombo and the cab driver didn't let us shop the next day or on our last day when we headed 5-6 hours early to the airport. The hotels were good except for the fact that two of them had no lifts but we had to climb stairs which was not beforehand. In fact the hotel which had a great view in Kandy, I requested the agent if we could stay there instead of going to Nuwara eliya but since it was last minute it was not acceptable. I would give 3 out 5 as there is scope of having better experience. My best memory is the time we spent in the Millennium elephant orphanage where we fed and bathed the elephant and walked with one.

Vipul's 8 days trip to Colombo

Sachini from Trip Travel hub was in constant touch with us before the journey started, share the details of the vehicle before hand. Doshan during the whole trip was very helpful and gu
