Nuwara Eliya

With its cool climate, colonial-styled buildings, expansive golf course, horse racing grounds, eventful lakefront and botanical gardens, Nuwara Eliya is undoubtedly one of Sri Lanka’s most-loved destinations.

The town is ideal for those with a knack for exploring – whether you choose to sightsee its bustling market or make your way up to the manicured Hakgala Gardens located just five kilometres away from the town centre. Witness centuries-old buildings and enjoy the many cafés, pubs and restaurants that offer some of the best local and international fare.

Don’t forget to enjoy the best of Nuwara Eliya’s produce, which includes fresh strawberries, upcountry vegetables and fragrant herbs. Nuwara Eliya is also a living ode to tea, so be sure to enjoy as many cups of the golden brew as you can manage.
