Affectionately known as 'Little England', Nuwara Eliya is the highest town in Sri Lanka. It sits amidst rolling hills blanketed with emerald tea plantations, cascading waterfalls, and misty mountain peaks. Due to its cool, refreshing climate, it was the favoured hill station of the British during the colonial era.
Today, visitors can still admire the charming Tudor-style colonial architecture, perfectly manicured lawns, and vibrant flower gardens. A visit to Nuwara Eliya is incomplete without touring a working tea factory to learn the art of Ceylon tea making. Enjoy a boat ride on Lake Gregory or a stroll through Victoria Park in this tranquil highland escape.
