Kurunegala
Lake
is
next
to
Kurunegala
North
and
is
placed
in
North
Western,
Sri
Lanka.
Kurunegala
Lake
has
a
length
of
3.68
kilometers.
It
is
also
known
as
Rantalia
Lake
or
Kurunegala
tank.
It
is
a
marvelous
water
body,
that
is
situated
away
from
the
metropolis
traffic
and
on
the
brink
of
the
main
city.
Kurunegala
Lake
may
be
described
as
the
lifeblood
of
the
people
of
Kurunegala.
It
is
providing
water
for
agriculture
while
enhancing
the
natural
beauty
of
the
town.
The
lake
occupies
a
huge
part
of
the
city
and
positioned
in
the
center
of
the
city.
Kurunegala
Lake
is
given
a
facelift
during
the
last
numerous
years.
Today
it
has
a
beautiful,
easy,
and
nicely
maintained
green
surrounding.
It
makes
a
stunning
sight
over
the
city
in
the
days
when
the
lake
is
full
of
freshwater
after
the
rain.
The
modern
promenade
around
the
lake
provides
a
tempting
atmosphere
for
a
night
walk.
Sitting
near
the
lake
or
walking
around
it
and
enjoying
the
view
is,
of
course,
free
of
price.
While
enjoying
your
time
in
the
lake,
you
could
head
to
an
eating
place
or
bar
to
enjoy
the
sunset.
It
must
also
be
kept
in
a
note
that
the
locals
of
Kurunegala
love
to
hold
their
marriage
ceremonies
at
this
place
due
to
the
picturesque
view
it
offers.
The
Urban
Development
Authority
has
already
undertaken
the
beautification
of
Kurunegala
Lake
surroundings
as
one
of
the
priority
projects
intending
to
enhance
the
cultured
condition
of
the
town
while
the
Lake
beautification
undertaking
encompasses
3.5
km
strolling
track
with
a
cycle
lane,
planting
trees,
offering
vehicle
parking
spaces,
trimming
of
existing
trees,
lights
of
the
project
area,
etc.
The
UDA
has
prepared
a
plan
including
the
above
features
and
the
total
challenge
cost
is
very
high.
Kurunegala
city
is
being
developed
as
the
main
urban
center
in
the
North
Western
Province.
Although
the
population
in
the
municipal
limit
is
recorded
as
30,000,
the
daily
commuter
populace
is
around
0.5
million
and
the
town
is
growing
fast
because
of
facilities
available
with
road
linkages.Therefore,
it
has
become
essential
to
offer
open
areas
and
recreational
and
enjoyment
arenas
to
cater
to
the
present
and
future
demands
of
the
population.
The
UDA
being
the
principal
planning
agency
is
guiding
the
improvement
based
totally
on
the
town
development
plan
while
implementing
the
action
projects.
