» Parakrama Samudra
One of the most striking features in Polonnaruwa is the vast Parakrama Samudra, of 5,940 acres, an irrigation tank built, as the name indicates by King Parakramabahu the Great, and so well named his `Sea'.
Close by are the ruins of the Kings (King Nissanka Malla) Council Chamber on whose pillars are inscribed the status and titles of various officials of the kingdom.
