    Diyatha uyana is one of the best places to be in when you need most important relaxation (Great place for relaxing in colombo), really nice scenic background with natural breeze. The place is great to have a rest, to relieve life stress. My self and my family usually visit this place once we get a time. The best is the environment and the lake near by. That view is just breath taking. Other thing is the food court. You can try various kind of food and beverages. There is a fish 🐠 aquarium so u are able to witness some fish therapy, not only that if u ar a gardening vibe this is the ryt place for u to buy vegetable, fruits and flower plants where u can get it for cheap price.

  • 5/5 Sahan W. 1 year ago on Google • 31 reviews
    There around 10 large fish tanks with a lovely variety of fish. You can't feed them but sit back and watch them peacefully. Ideal location if you want to wait till someone arrive as it's an exciting collection. Security guards will warn you if you are carrying food/drinks as it's not allowed. This is free of charge service.

  • 3/5 mohamed ijas m. 1 year ago on Google • 56 reviews
    here’s a lovely aquarium at Diyatha Uyana, the site of the Good Market, near Water’s Edge. Each tank is run by a different fish store. It’s not Sea World, but it’s still a worthwhile stroll in a circle. While the Water’s Edge building remains for private functions, the land and water around has been rededicated to nature and public recreation, to great effect. From public walking areas to the weekly Good Market, Diyatha Uyana has become a beautiful addition to the city. The latest improvement is the installation of a circular aquarium, visible from the Parliament Road. This newly opened space has around a dozen big tanks, each managed by a different private fish store. They stock a variety of fish, from goldfish to, uh, bigger fish and, well, fish that look like Gill from Finding Nemo. This is not the Singapore Aquarium, with a variety of exotic creatures, but it is novel, well-kept and entertaining. We went as the place was just getting setup and there were already families and couples strolling around. The Diyatha Uyana food court was busy even around 10 PM and people driving along the Parliament Road stopped to have a walk around. We presume that the aquarium is kinda 24/7, being an outdoor public space, but we’d recommend going at regular waking hours. It is especially beautiful at night.

    This place is located inside Diyatha Uyana Park. There are few big fish tanks. Those tanks are maintained by Sri Lanka Army. A good place to relax especially if you are coming with your family. Kids will love this place even though there are 8-10 tanks. There is seating around the place so you can sit down and enjoy the view. The place is crowded on the weekend and evenings on the weekdays. Parking is limited but you can find someplace to park and it is free.
