Sri Lanka may be renowned for its picturesque beaches, but nestled away in the mountains and surrounded by sprawling tea plantations is a scenic little town called Nuwara Eliya. Lovingly referred to as ‘Little England’, the cold weather and the colonial buildings are indeed reminiscent of a little English city.
Have High Tea
Is there anything more British than spending the afternoon sipping a perfectly brewed cup of tea whilst munching on a scone? If that piques your interest, make sure to enjoy a high-tea experience provided by the likes of Araliya Green Hills.
Visit a Strawberry Farm
One may not always associate a tropical island such as Sri Lanka with strawberry farms, but these are among the best places to visit in Nuwara Eliya. Here, you can explore the farm and end your visit by tasting some delectable strawberry treats made using freshly plucked strawberries.
Visit a Tea Plantation
Even if you are not a regular tea drinker, a visit to one of the several tea plantations situated in Nuwara Eliya is a must, as some of the world’s best tea is produced right there.
Take a Walk Through Victoria Park
Situated in the middle of the city, this park can be a haven away from the hustle and bustle of the city for those looking to take it easy and enjoy the greenery.
