The most beautiful natural sites to discover North

Giant's Tank Sanctuary is a nature reserve located about 20 km southeast of Mannar. Many species of waterfowl and wading birds are found in the sanctuary, as well as a few elephants. At the heart of the sanctuary is the Yodha Wewa, the Giant 's tank, considered to be one of the greatest creations of King Parakramabahu I. This tank is said to be one of the first human hydraulic installations on the island. Forgotten for a long time, it was reused when the British arrived.
