Nuwara Eliya

Nuwara Eliya meaning “city on the plain or “city of light” is a town in the central highlands of Sri Lanka. It is one of the major tea producing areas in the world. The tallest mountain in Sri Lanka “Pidurutalagala” oversees this beautiful city. It is the most visited hill country.

With 4* colonial hotels, working tea factories to visit as well as a golf club and a racecourse, Nuwara Eliya is a place to really gain a feel for colonial times. With Lake Gregory and an entertaining schedule of events (particularly in April season when locals from Colombo arrive to escape the heat), Nuwara Eliya is a beautiful place to relax and enjoy life in the ‘home of tea’.
