Victoria Dam is an arch dam located 130 mi upstream of the Mahaweli River's mouth and 4 mi from Teldeniya. Its main purposes are irrigation and hydroelectric power production.
Considered the crown jewel of Mahaweli Development Project, The Victoria Dam is built at a deep valley just above the Victoria Falls rapids and 300 meters below the point where the Hulu Ganga meets the Mahaveli River. The construction of the dam began in 1978 and was ceremoniously opened in 1985 which was graced by Margaret Thatcher, then prime-minister of UK. The funding, design and the technical expertise was provided by United Kingdom and the projects most memorable event was recorded when Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II visited the construction site on October 24, 1981.
