Galle Face Urban Forest Park

Park

👍👍 A beautiful park with plenty of greeneries to chill or a stroll with kids in the middle of the city. Color changing splash pad in the middle of the park will amaze the kids. Very clean and well maintained. People often mention park, good,

    Nice little place with a great view of the lake and surrounding skyscrapers. Some food stalls with open area concrete seating facilities. Nice landscaping with trees to enjoy. No parking available unless you park on the road curb. Still not much traffic on the Baladaksha road, so some park motorbikes and enjoy this place. Not much noticed or crowded at the moment. That might change when Cinnamon Life hotel opens...

    It's still more or less a construction area so the views aren't that great also, there are few upmarket quick eats mini restaurants in the premises including a liquor store but even if you go there at 8pm on a Friday there's not a crowd and it feels very empty. However this is a good thing of you're going thwre with your gf or bf so that you can have a nice peaceful time. After 9 - 10 pm there's almost no one in the path and it's a nice place to take a walk or sit and have a chat. That's about it.

    New spot in town but hasn't attracted crowd yet. May get noticed when the surrounding constructions finish. With few food and drink stall in the opposite will be a good stop by place. Unfortunately no ample parking space.

    Not a large park. The place is lit after 6 or 6.30 pm. So better plan to be there after that.

  • 2/5 Nazreen 3 years ago on Google • 26 reviews
    Food was good but a stall charged Rs.100 for a small bottle of water which was price marked clearly Rs.35 when another chared just Rs.50 for a large. Keep an eye on the price list before purchasing. There was also no water storage facility (on a day like today when entire Colombo is going through a water cut) so need not say about the washrooms 🤮 Also some lovebirds who didn't realize it was a public place gave the audience a free show on, which I need not mention.

    Shade was non existent as the trees are still small/growing. Relatively calm environment and a good selection of food.

  • 5/5 Thariq I. 3 years ago on Google • 11 reviews
    A great place to relax. The park is well maintained. It has benches, tables and also a set of basic exercise equipment. The atmosphere is clean, surrounding is calm, and the overall experience is relaxing. The only issue is that its cafeteria named "Dining Capsule" is about 750m away from the park.
