Minneriya Tank

Minneriya Tank

Wikipedia tells us:  “Minneriya tank is a reservoir in Sri Lanka made by an old civilisation; the Anuradhapura Kingdom. King Mahasena ordered a dam build across the Minneriya River, which made the lake. The tank covered 4,670 acres.”  This unused postcard only seems that old, as it is extremely heavily aged on the reverse.  Grade: 3
