About the Park:
Wilpattu National Park, located on the northwestern coast of Sri Lanka, has much historical importance, as Kuweni - the native who became Sri Lanka’s first queen after coupling with the shipwrecked Indian prince Vijaya - was supposed to have originally lived in the area around the 6th century BC.
