Thalawathugoda Photo Walk 2019

Keells Super Car Park

Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte, Sri Lanka

March 20, 2019 @ 16:00 (+0530)

Thalawathugoda (https://goo.gl/maps/4ezta9BeiBn) is a suburb, which is well known as an emerging city in Colombo. This is a rapidly developing residential area with many facilities. The Diyawanna Oya (Parliament Lake - https://goo.gl/maps/bXqRvhSQio22) forms one side’s boundary of Thalawathugoda. Even though this city is getting busier by the day, there are still plenty of places where we can capture scenic views consisting flora and fauna. We will focus on capturing some quality photographs of day-to-day life in Thalawathugoda as well as the main entities alongside the road. We will start at “Keells Super Car Park” near Thalawathugoda junction and work our way towards the parliament side (towards Keells Super Market) where we can find the “Parliament Lake”. We will also visit the “Diyasaru Park” (https://goo.gl/maps/yHiYizXZAZT2) which is commonly visited for bird watching. Hopefully we can capture 360 photos of different sceneries such as parks and lakes. The cover photo was taken in a morning near Hokandara, Thalawathugoda. Then we can end the walk at Kimbulawala junction and have some sanks at the “Army Café” (https://goo.gl/maps/CBFHf7gzgRE2).

One of the interesting places I am planing to visit during this meet-up is the “Diyasaru Park". You can find different kinds of plants, birds, butterflies and lizards etc. This piece of land was converted to a very beautiful park some time back and we can enjoy nature here amidst busy city.

Hoping to click great pictures and 360 photos of this location as well.

Since there will be another meet-up @ Viharamahadevi park at the same time, we will shift this meet-up to 10 am, so we can attend both the meet-ups. Sorry for the inconvenience caused and hoping to see you all near Thalawathugoda around 10 pm.
