Are there any safe toddler friendly parks in Colombo.
2 Answers from travellers
Viharamahadevi Park in central Colombo 07 is absolutely perfect. It is the largest public park in the city, heavily shaded by massive ancient trees, and features a dedicated, recently renovated children playground area.
Diyatha Uyana in Battaramulla is another fantastic, highly secure option. It has beautiful, flat walking paths surrounding a large lake and expansive, manicured grass lawns where toddlers can play safely away from city traffic.
Scam Watch: colombo
Driver claims the meter is broken and quotes an inflated flat rate. Common on arrival at airport or railway stations when tourists are tired and disoriented.
Drivers wearing official-looking uniforms claim to be "government-approved" and charge 3-5x normal rates. They may have fake badges or ID cards.
Women with babies approach asking you to buy milk powder at a nearby shop (not cash). The shop is run by accomplices and charges 5-10x normal price.
