Nuwara Eliya

Travel Guide

Away from the urban tangle that is much or Sri Lanka, Nuwara Eliya's hilly countryside of tea plantations is as scenic a train ride one can experience. #LifeAtExpedia
A little gem on a hill! Breathtaking views overlooking Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka
A Tusker elephant on a hedge only in Nuwara Eliya. April is the time gardens in Nuwara Eliya start blossoming with beautiful flowers and are adorned by intricately trimmed hedges. But this hedge was discovered during my visit in November 2014. Such a head-turner.
Out in the mountain regions of Sri Lanka, your eyes can't help but be drawn to the bright green lines of the endless tea plantations.
Fine looking Tea fields on the way to Nuwara Eliya, the valleys filled with clouds and occasional rain showers make the soothing journey memorable.

Popular places to visit

The road from Kandy to Nuwara Eliya is full of turns, deceptively long and passes some of the largest tea plantations in the world. Truth be told, driving anywhere in the hill country of Sri Lanka is an exercise in patience given that even short distances can take hours due to slow moving traffic, poor weather or less than desirable roads. Better then to sit back and enjoy the ride while stopping for the occasional picture.
