This is a large, beautiful park with many different flower varieties. There is a small museum showing the history of the area with a wonderful lady telling us about it all. Would recommend.

Victoria Park is an elegantly landscaped garden filled with lovely blooms. There is a kids play area for children. It is a nice place for bird watching too.

The initial surprise here was paying 400 rupees per person to enter. I don't think I've encountered a city or town park in the UK or Europe you pay to enter. But it is only £1.40 and the park is very nice. Small, only 800 metres if you enter through one gate and go straight to exit the other but with other paths within the park and pretty arrays of flowers, shrubs and trees it is a quiet respite from the busy town.

It has a children park. Avoid weekends and holidays since it may be crowded. But even if this place is crowded you can enjoy it very much. Better try to allocate 2-3 hours and cover all. There is a museum too. But unfortunately it was closed both time I went there in 2018 and 2022.

I arrived at the eastern gate at 7.10 am. The park is supposed to be open at 7 am. There was no one at the ticket window. The security man said come back at 7.30. I said “ but it should be open now”. He then demanded to see my ID! Whatever for?
I left and went to the main gate, which was open. The entrance fee for foreigners is 400lkr!
I have an interest in birds so walked slowly around the park. I didn’t see many birds….. but piles of rubbish and litter everywhere!

Good to spend time when you have free time away from other attractions. Need to pay entrance fee. Good environment. Need to focus on cleaning up trash filled stream.

Well maintained. The Council has invested in the park in recent years. Ideal for an informal picnic. Mature trees, attractive bedding. Bird watchers know it as a place for fairly rare species. If birds are your interest visit in the evening.

The park is very well maintained kudos to the concerned authority. There is an area for kids and it is just an ideal place for a morning or evening walk. If you need a quiet green oasis to relax in the city of Nuwara Eliya, this is just the idyllic location.
