Yes, it is very safe for tourists to walk along the Kelani River near the temple. There is a designated, paved walking path that is extremely peaceful, especially in the early mornings and late afternoons.

You will see many locals taking quiet strolls, kids playing, and pilgrims washing their feet before entering the sacred grounds. It is a highly respected and secure area.

Just avoid walking in completely unlit sections late at night. The area directly behind the temple is well lit and heavily used by devotees, making it perfectly safe for a sunset stroll.
