Hunupitiya Travel Guide

Colombo

Beira lake is situated just 1km away from the heart of Colombo. It has been one of the top tourist destinations in the commercial capital, Colombo as Gangarama Temple is located just next to Beira lake. I really recommend this place for you who are visiting Sri Lanka. Other than the religious background, it's a great place to capture some water birds as well.

Beira lake is situated just 1km away from the heart of Colombo. It is such a beautiful place due to the Gangaramaya temple and it's wildlife both. This pelican is trying to catch something to eat. It is really fun to have a close look at these birds.
