Iranaimadu Kulam is one of the largest irrigation reservoirs in northern Sri Lanka, located in the Kilinochchi District. Built in 1921 during the British colonial period, the reservoir was created to support agriculture, especially paddy cultivation in the surrounding areas. Fed mainly by the Kanakarayan Aru, Iranaimadu Kulam plays a vital role in supplying water for farming and also contributes to the region’s water supply. The vast lake, surrounded by open landscapes and greenery, offers beautiful scenic views, especially during sunrise and sunset. Today, it remains an important lifeline for local communities and agriculture in the Northern Province.
