RAJANGANAYA RESERVOIR & ROCK


Rajanganaya is a beautiful village situated in   Anuradhapura province .This      village full of natural beauties there is a big potential  for promoting as a tourist   destination .around the area the villagers cultivating paddy and they doing farming on the rajanganaya dam is giving more beautiful to that village 

     The rajangana dam is an irrigation dam built across the kala oya river bordering the north western and north central province of Sri Lanka .The main concrete dam measures approximately 350m and create the Rajangana reservoir and there is historical believes that the great king duttugemunu”s son price Saliya and his future bride Asokamala spent they leisure time at the rock where Is situating on beside to the Rajangana dam. That rock is looking very marvelous and some domestic tourist who knows about this rock and dam they visits and enjoy. 
Still it’s not promoted and there is no any     accommodation facilities, accessibility facilities but this village can be promote under the  community based tourism   as a tourist destination  there is big potential for be a tourist destination. And there can   be promote ecofriendly and sustainable tourism because the surrounding of the Rajanganaya is full of natural greenish environment .If we see the sun set at the dam it’s amazing and refreshes the mind. I hope this place will be attracted by the tourist if it’s promoted.
