Location

Panadura Divisional Secretary’s Division located at North-western  terminal of Kaluthara  District is bounded as follows ,North by Colombo Distract, East by Bandaragama Secretary’s  Division ,South  by kalutara  Divisional Secretary’s Division and west by Indian  Ocean. The Division covers an area of 3.6% of the total extent of land in Kaluthara District ,which is 4717Ha. Or 59 Squire  Kilometers (23 miles) .

Total area is mostly low land and no significant diversification could be observed accordingly to topographical features.

West margin of the Division consists of plain fields characters which is a common feature in the coastal area. Low land features can be seen in the catchment  area of the Bolgoda Lake and River in the Eastern margin Intermediate region consists of terraced land.

Historical Background of Panadura Divisional Secretary’s Division.

Colonel Olcott identified the Panadura Thotamuna situated in Thalpitiya Debbadde of Raigam Karalee in Kalutara District, western province as “Panadura vijaya Bhoomiya”. In Tamil Panadura thotamuna is also called “Panthei Thurei” or “Pashana Dura” Gala dura (means stone at a distance.) .

In the titled “the book of Ceylon, Panadura is most colorful vividly described as follows,
“Panadura is a township with an urban population of approximately 2000. It has similar characteristics of Moratuwa Town. Its rivers estuaries and small islands scattered throughout add Panoramic Beauty and Charm. They are retreats of multitudes of water – fowl and are covered with exquisite vegetation. The passenger should look out for the beautiful view from the railway bridge crossing the mouth of the river near the station.”

Events associated with famous historical battles are interesting and the first occurred in the twelth  century when Alakeswera a famous General of king Parakrama Bahu Great of Polonnaruwa met the Indian invaders near Panadura and defeated them the second  was the struggle for  supremacy between the Dutch and Portuguese in the seventeenth century. A retinue of three thousand people marched from Kalutara  to Colombo, the dutch had safely crossed the Panadura river. Later about 500 people were surrounded and they were survivor succeeded in reaching Colombo again, but in such a miserable situation nearly half of them succumbed to their injuries.
