WALKING OR BIKING AROUND THE TISSA LAKE

If you have already read our article about bird watching - the Wirawila bird sanctuary, you will know that he Tissa lake is actually at the edge of the sanctuary.
Of course you can see a lot of beautiful birds but we would recommend you to visit the lake for things.

Watching the sunset is a wonderful experience.

The Tissa lake bank has been renovated to allow a better traffic circulation and it is now very pleasant to have a walk alongside the lake.

During your ballad you might witness Sri Lankan people enjoying a refreshing bath in the lake or the water current flowing as it is part of their tradition after going to the Tissa Dagoba or to Kataragama.

Many joggers would hit the track in the early morning or the late afternoon.

Few street stalls will be there to buy some local shorteats.

Apart from holidays, it is never really crowded and never really empty, which makes it always pleasant and relaxing to have a walk there.
