RANMASU UYANA (ROYAL PARK)

The Royal Golden Fish Park (Ranmasu Uyana), also known as the Royal Pleasure Gardens, covers an area of 14 hectares. They date from the reign of Dutugemunu. There is a very sophisticated hydraulic system, with beautiful elephants carved in stone, and a strange carved rock called "Stargate", which represents a map of the stars. The reservoir was fed by the Tessa Wewa River and drained to the rice fields of Isurumuni.
