Indeed, Nuwara Eliya was formerly the preferred cool-climate retreat for Sri Lanka's tea industry's hard-working and hard-drinking English and Scottish pioneers.

Tea estates meticulously kept vegetable plots, and rugged hills dot the surrounding area, which is lush and beautiful. Spend a stay in one of Nuwara Eliya's colonial hotels, play a round of golf or a few frames of billiards, and take in the town's distinctive past. Around Nuwara Eliya, you'll find mock-Tudor buildings, hills draped in rich green tea plantations, and Horton Plains National Park.

Nuwara Eliya is a green community with a British accent in the heart of Sri Lanka's tea heartland. Tea bushes are beautifully groomed on almost every slope. The mock-Tudor buildings and velvety golf courses harken back to when this was the British's favourite getaway after defeating the Kandyan Kingdom and gaining control of Sri Lanka.
