    Calm and nice place for early morning/ evening walk. Have ample space for parking. There is a dedicated place to do exercises. This place gets crowded during weekeneds. Pets are not allowed. There is a childrens' park at the corner. Can watch birds during early morning. Kayaking facility is also available.

    Nature oriented place. We can use any time of the day without any restrictions. Small animals and birds available 🐊 Also available (Be careful) Personally I don't suggest this place to a family. Suggested for a person looking for relaxation and a person in a relationship can go there with their slaves 😉 😍

    Well maintained and clean along the Nawala road. Loads of greenery and a bit of wildlife too along the walking path. Perfect for an early morning or an evening walk, in addition to a children's play area.

    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 much rich in animal diversity. But it is a great getaway from the rush and the noise of the busy city.

    Good place to jog in the morning. Surrounded by water and there was an warning for crocodiles even though I didn't see any, only a couple of monitors. The front area has an area filled with bushes which is often occupied by couples. The sand path for jogging is very well maintained. There is also an children's park in there. But no shelters from rain though.

    If you wanna have peaceful walk or an evening jog to relax yourself, this is the place. Gets very sunny and hot in the afternoon. Inside the park might be awkward for some as there are lot of couples

  • 4/5 Ravindu R. 2 years ago on Google
    A great place for a younger couples to spend their time when they are come to nugegoda area. Basically it's a sandy walking path.There is a lake along the walking path.But you also have some seating areas. That's why people call it "weli park". There are no shops in this park. But they have washoom facilities. no need to pay for enter this park or for the washrooms. Highly reccomend for the peoples who go on joggins in the evening or early morning. This is the best place to feel a calm environment in one of the busiest cities of srilanka. You can park your vehicals in welipark parking area. There are securities aswell. Reccomend to anyone. Thanks! 🌱🦀🦐🌹

    There are only couples on the benches, and there are very few people sitting alone. Most people are walking or jogging!

  • 5/5 Tuan 4 years ago on Google
    Nice place to have a chit chat, jog or exercise. There is a war tank displayed where you can get in and take pics and also a boat restaurant named gartons ark where you have to book in advance to get on-board in it.

    It's a cool place for anyone visiting from the wooded surroundings of Colombo. It also has a walking path, so it is ideal to spend your relaxing evenings freely. The whole family can come together and spend a few free hours without any interruptions. But you should be grateful enough to take what you bring back without leaving it here.

    Relaxable place for couples, specially in the evening, can enjoy the beauty of the park with pleasant climate. And in the morning or evening it is the best place for people to relax or exercise.

    An unused patch of valuable land converted to a beautiful and useful walking path. Many trees planted years back are fully grown now providing shade not only to people but also to many birds and animals. Many migratory birds can be encountered here Maintained well with solar lighting. Open till 10 pm. Pets not allowed. Kids play area well maintained . Washrooms available .

    Went for a walk these past 2 months and it was very dark the lights do not work properly sometimes and there are couples hidden in the bushes to beware, almost got a heart attack when a couple walked out of the bushes in front of me 😂 overall a good track the ground is even and nice ample parking space and very good security at entrance. But overall doesn't feel safe to walk solo as a woman after dark.

    Wetland Park or Nawala Weli Park or Vali Park are few names for the Park.] The park is for people do their daily workouts as well as for people to relax and enjoy themselves with their friends and Families It is nice to see such a natural environment in the middle of a city, in between Nugegoda & Nawala. Nature is inbuilt into this man made park and if you are interested in Nature and bird watching, this is one of the best places to take photos.There are a lot of photographers who comes to the park to take photos of Birds The Park has a Jogging Track, Children Park, open areas for excising and Garden area with a lot of flowers and trees. During the morning and evening, many people come for daily workouts/exercise The Gartons Ark is also at the corner of the park and it is an excellent place to relax, spend time with your family or exercise with your friends. You find a lot of lovers also in the Park. The park is well maintained by the armed forces and very safe for anyone.

    Nice place to relax and get a healthy workout. Garden area is beautiful and it has artificial waterfall area that brings you to calm and cool environment and have a old tank that used in combat in the sri lankan 30 year old civil war. Jogging area is limited to few meters but it's enough to have a decent jogging.

    A small park which is good. Walking track is smaller than Bellanwila walking track. Environment is a bit having dirty water smell. Shade is there covered by trees. So good to have walk any time of the day.

    Nice and calm location in center of city area (called Weli Park) with more space allocated for nature. Still it's ok and bit clean environment. But this should be maintained for long as it's a public property. I see some foolish people have thrown their garbage (plastice bottles, polythene bags) inside the park even there are more notice boards to advise not to do so.. Anyway, just visit there in the evening time and be some time to feel relaxation.

    A small but well designed park. However the water features, which is the iconic to the park has not been maintained and shut off for a while. Further they literally have put up 1000 boards all over the place with various different orders and instructions. Nevertheless, it is great location to escape from the city and if you're not the type of person who is jealous of the freedom younger generation enjoys. Last but not least, there is friendly and goofi residence goose living in the park too.

    Urban Wetland Park is situated on Nawala Road in Nugegoda. Although it is situated in an urban area it is a great place to escape the rush and noise of the city. The wetland park is great for walkers and bird lovers. It is a place with lush greenery and also includes a children’s park inside it. Many people come here for regular exercises, walks and for relaxation of the mind.

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Nawala Urban Wetland Park, and I must say it was a delightful experience. Located in the heart of the city, this park offers a serene oasis away from the hustle and bustle. Upon entering the park, I was immediately struck by the lush greenery and the well-maintained pathways that wind through the wetlands. The natural beauty of the surroundings creates a calming and peaceful atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and contemplation. The park boasts a diverse range of flora and fauna, with various species of birds, butterflies, and aquatic life adding to the park's charm. Nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers will be thrilled to witness the array of feathered residents that call this wetland home. The park's amenities are impressive as well. The well-designed boardwalks and observation decks offer stunning views of the wetlands, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the tranquility while enjoying the sights and sounds of nature. Benches and picnic spots are strategically placed, providing ample opportunities for visitors to unwind and connect with nature. What impressed me most was the commitment to environmental conservation and education. Informative signage and displays are scattered throughout the park, providing insights into the wetland ecosystem, its importance, and the need for its preservation. It's evident that the park management is dedicated to raising awareness about the value of wetlands and the role they play in maintaining ecological balance. Overall, the Nawala Urban Wetland Park is a hidden gem in the city. It offers a unique blend of natural beauty, recreational opportunities, and educational experiences. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, an opportunity to connect with nature, or a chance to learn about wetland ecosystems, this park is a must-visit. Kudos to the park management for creating such a wonderful sanctuary in the midst of urban life.
