Cool place.. this place very good Place... Every Friday and Saturday have some music traditional dance. Relaxing place 🙂😌

This is a very calm and nice place. Even in the mid of city of Colombo, this type of natural beauty makes the wonderful beauty to the city. This is well maintained garden with a nice view towards the Waters Edge lake. Also Waters Edge water aerodrome also clearly visible to this location. Seating benches are located along the garden and also some fruits like guava are also available in the gardedn.

Great place to go out with your family.There are different shops such as foods,juice and some other shops such as fish therapy,flower shops and aquarium.

Awesome place to hangout with friends or to have a romantic walk with your lover. Also good to visit with family on evenings or on weekends. Walking tracks and kids play are are available as well. A food court and some street food like achchaaru are available.

Peaceful place for an evening walk and great food stalls

This place is calm..no much people..can stay here freely

Awesome place one of my favourite place . But be careful when boat ride . Boat owner not get much responsible if we get trouble .

If you are looking for a place to walk under the shade then this is the place. You can reach here if you take 171,170 or 190 bus from Colombo Fort. Not a busy place but this foot path is located parallel to the road so you have to bear up the sound of vehicles.

Great place for a walk. Calm, except for the noise of the vehicles. That's also significantly reduced once you're inside the park. Swan boat rides are also available here.

You can hire this palace short time or long time. Clean and clam palace. Do not bring any garbage here plastic, polithin, beer cans, water bottles and food waste. Some people come can throw garage here. Do not destroy grass around this area. Do not throw garbage in to diyawannawa lake. Do not enter your bikes to here.

Loved the train station. And the boat ride is really fun. And there is food available at the train station which makes it really more fun! Great place to handout with friends and family.

Good place to be there with family, weekends mostly crowded you may not able to enjoy peacefulness and beauty of nature. Includes a kids play area, keep a note you cannot take food into park. Food can be consumed at food court area. Birds watching, fish tanks, fountain , Shopping stalls available. Parking available, if using public transport, can access via 170. 171 174 186 190 bus routes

(Translated by Google) Exotic Meditation Buddha statue at Mahamevnawa Park Sunset falls on the green roads of the jungle. The tour leader took us again to visit Mahamevnawa Park. The last drops of sunshine of the autumn day pass through the leaves, it glitters with peaceful drops. All of us do not seem to remember our worries of life anymore, only downstream of our own spiritual path. Tucked away in the dense woods of Mahamevnawa Park in Anuradhapura, the Samadhi Buddha image is a Buddha in the meditation posture (Dhyana Mudra) of Buddha. This is a stone statue of more than 2,000 years, has been eroded by the mist and wind, but the miracle is that when we come so close to worship, a calm energy spreads to us, even though it is just a stone statue, yet the statue radiates completely the steadfast abidingness of the Buddha in the deepest meditative levels, his whole body gentle, serene, completely free. "Stubborn", it can be said, the writer himself later when the topic of Buddhist recitation "Buddho", this statue is the image to visualize, it brings natural concentration, to relax and let go of the easiest way. It can be said that this statue was completed by the masterful craftsmanship of the master craftsman and possibly by a person who has experienced meditation. Of course it is speculation, but it is quite possible. How grateful and happy we are that those present here have the opportunity to listen to the Dharma, to contemplate the divine relics, to be able to practice the virtuous dhammas, to follow the tracks of Buddha relics, intentionally kept hidden by the ancient Sages. Among the more than seven billion people present on this earth, that is exactly the result of the good karma we have planted. Grateful! We can say that, it is gratitude and virtue to study that made us come to this place together, and open our hearts to receive the Dharma. Again, the recitation of the Sutras, still the old Pali sound, the feeling that it envelops the country is only this sacred and powerful sound: "Evam me suttam," which means "As I have heard,". Or, Chu Thien here wants me to hear! I don't know, just know that there is something very magical about this ancient statue. We have only this lightness, peace, and endless peace. (Original) Tượng Đức Phật Thiền Định kỳ lạ ở công viên Mahamevnawa Hoàng hôn buông lơi trên những trên những con đường xanh thẳm màu lá của rừng già. Người dẫn đoàn lại đưa chúng tôi đi vào thăm công viên Mahamevnawa. Những giọt nắng cuối cùng của ngày thu xen qua kẻ lá, nó lóng lánh những giọt bình yên. Tất cả chúng tôi dường như không còn ai nhớ nổi đến những lo toan cuộc đời nữa, chỉ còn xuôi theo con đường tâm linh của chính mình. Ẩn mình trong rừng cây rậm rạp của công viên Mahamevnawa ở Anuradhapura, tượng Đức Phật Samadhi là một bức tượng trong tư thế thiền định đắc đạo (Dhyana Mudra) của Đức Phật. Đây là pho tượng bằng đá đã trên 2.000 năm, đã bị bào mòn bởi sương gió, nhưng điều kỳ diệu là khi đến thật gần để chiêm bái, một năng lượng an tĩnh lan tỏa đến chúng tôi, mặc dù chỉ là tượng đá, thế nhưng bức tượng toát lên hoàn toàn vẻ an trú vững chãi của Đức Phật trong các tầng thiền định sâu nhất, toàn thân Ngài nhẹ nhàng, thanh thoát, tự tại hoàn toàn. “Nổi gai óc”, có thể nói vậy, bản thân người viết sau này này khi hành đề mục niệm phật “Buddho”, thì bức tượng này chính là hình tượng để quán tưởng đến, nó mang đến sự định tâm tự nhiên, thư giãn buông xả một cách dể dàng nhất. Có thể nói, bức tượng này được hoàn thành bởi sự điêu luyện của người nghệ nhân đỉnh cao và có thể do một vị có thiền chứng tạc ra. Dĩ nhiên đó là suy đoán, những nó hoàn toàn có thể như vậy. Chúng tôi đầy lòng biết ơn và sung sướng biết bao được là những người có mặt tại nơi này nầy, được có cơ hội nghe Phật pháp, chiêm bái những thánh tích, được là thực hành các thiện pháp, được lần theo dấu vết của các Phật tích, do các bậc hiền Thánh xưa cố tình lưu dấu lại. Giữa hơn bảy tỉ người có mặt trên trái đất nầy, đó đúng là kết quả của nghiệp lành chúng tôi đã gieo trồng. Biết ơn! Có thể nói vậy, chính lòng biết ơn và hạnh cầu học đã khiến chúng tôi cùng nhau đến nơi này, và cùng mở lòng đón nhận Phật pháp. Lại tiếng tụng Kinh, vẫn lại là thanh âm Pali cổ xưa, cảm tưởng nó bao trùm đất nước này chỉ thanh âm trầm hùng linh thiêng này: “Evam me suttam,” có nghĩa là “Như tôi đã được nghe,”. Hay, Chư Thiên nơi này muốn tôi nghe được! Không biết nữa, chỉ biết rằng có gì đó rất màu nhiệm từ bức tượng cổ xưa này. Chúng tôi chỉ còn sự nhẹ tênh, bình an giữa mênh mang vô tận này.

Awesome place to hangout.

Good

Nice place for meet. Evening is better .

Place was great but the distespect given by the security lady spolit my whole day, me and a bunch of my friends were messing around at the entrance , and she said “ yanawa methanin “ and something else and i asked my friends what she said and she mocked me saying the same thing with a unpleasnt face, if she is being paid to do her job, she should do it well and show some respect when speakinh , please note this to her , the date was 13th of november at around 4 -4:30 pm, it spoilt my whole day and i dont know how she had the nerve to say it aswell, maybe because we are a bunch of youngsters, but its still not proper be cause i am sure i wont make a visit there anytime sooner.

Nice place

I really thought this was a part of Diyatha Uyana . Swan Ride is fun but better have precaution as these boats are not exactly well maintained .But very unlikely to sink . Walk here is something awesome alone or with a party .Specialy in the mornings . Diyatha Uyana and Diyatha station is a minutes walk away .

Nice quiet and breezy.

Nice place to visit surrounding colombo

Such as a beautiful place.❤

So pretty views day and night. Right amidst the city yet you can find nature. Very crowded on holidays. Cheap food and drinks from the park restaurant.
