The Parakrama Samudraya in Polonnaruwa is an excellent irrigation work done by King Parakramabahu the Great. The Parakrama Samudra was built by combining the three former tanks - Topa Wewa, Dumutulu Wewa and Eramudu Wewa - in the area of ​​the present Parakrama Samudra. The Akasa River was constructed by crossing a dam in the Amban Ganga Angamadilla area to bring water to the Parakrama Samudraya. The smoke that preceded the construction of the Parakrama Samudra Toulouse eramudu Lake and Lake of the old water tanks for the two farming Thopawewa Upathissa fourth century by King that created .12.38 km long reservoir reservoirs to be used in further documenting the 9.45 million meters.

Parakrama Samudraya is made up of 7 lakes altogether. It can be witnessed on the way to the Potu Gal Viharaya, which is also a famous historical place in Polonnaruwa. On the bank of the lake is also an outdoor gym open to anyone at anytime which gives an excellent view of the lake whilst working out.

Nice place for a bath. Sunset was amazing. This is a very ancient lake built by Sinhala ancestors about 1000 years ago. King Parakramabahu built this one large lake combining 5 lakes. Its called samudra(sea) because of its size.
