High Tea country and Mountains of South Central Sri Lanka

High tea country in the southern central highlands is a maze of hill stations and tea plantation linked by impossibly twisting roads – dramatic mountain scenery, fresh air and rolling mists. The market town of Nuwara Eliya, Little England, is a journey back in time, with a race course, tea rooms, planters club and quirky shops. Walk on the geologically unique plateau of Horton Plains National Park, or make the arduous climb up Sri Padha, Adam’s Peak.

Kandy and the Kandy Hills: Sri Lanka’s Heart

Kandy is the Royal and Cultural capital of Sri Lanka, and home to the sacred Temple of the Tooth Relic, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Skirting the mighty Mahaweli River and surrounded by majestic hills, it is Sri Lanka’s heart, the gateway to the high tea country to the South, to the Cultural triangle in the north and to the wild Knuckles mountain range. To the east lies the Victoria Dam and the breathtakingly scenic Victoria Golf Course.
