Created in 1873 during the British period, Gregory Lake covers an area of 91 hectares southeast of the city center. In 1913, the waters of the lake were directed into a tunnel that flows to a hydroelectric plant in Blackpool, which to this day continues to provide electricity to the city. The lake is probably the major attraction of Nuwara Eliya. You can fish, pedal boat, boat, walk or cycle around it. Since 2012, seaplanes land there regularly, in season, from Colombo (a 30-minute flight).

c'est un lac aménagé en base de loisirs pour les sri lankais, touristes bien venus s'ils payent l'entrée, très beau et bien entretenu, buvettes, jeux d'enfants, pédalos à louer, jet skis, tout pour le plaisir. bel environnement et juste à la sortie de nuwara eliya. A mon avis je pense que ça mérite juste la photo et non sa fréquentation, d'ailleurs il y a très peu d'étrangers, et beaucoup d'écoles et familles. A voir seulement
Le matin il fait frais attention.
