Nuwara Eliya
“Breathe in the misty charm of Nuwara Eliya — where every moment feels like a walk through the clouds.”
Nuwara Eliya is the world’s ‘Little England’ and the hill station of the British Ceylon. Its rolling hills, green pastures, and highland climate made it Sri Lanka’s favourite retreat of the British colonials. At an elevation of 2000 metres, Nuwara Eliya weather provides the perfect ambience for golfing, hiking, boating, and immersing in the ultimate tea experiences. Miles and miles of lush tea estates blanket the area, making it one of the best tea-growing regions of the world. The train ride to Nuwara Eliya from the city of Kandy is one of the most scenic train routes in the country. Nuwara Eliya waterfalls that dominate the landscape are not only spectacular but are also in abundance.
