    Day 03 Kandy - Nuwara Eliya (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner)

    After breakfast proceed to Nuwara Eliya Nuwara Eliya: Enjoy Tea experience, which involves a visit a plantation to observefirsthand the process, starting from the plucking field where it all begins with the picking of two leaves and a bud to the factory

    where the processing begins. Originally introduced to the island around 1850 by the British, Ceylon Tea is world famous for its

    high quality and has remained a major contributor to the islands economy for generations. Currently, Sri Lanka is one of largest

    exporter of tea worldwide. The high altitudes produce the best flavours, so Sri Lankas hill-country is the ideal environment to

    grow the most flavorsome tea. A guided tour around a Tea Factory is an enlightening experience. Nuwara Eliya The Little England

    of Sri Lanka, is set against beautiful backdrops of Mountains, Valleys, Waterfalls and Tea Plantations. It is supposed to be one of

    the coolest places in the Island, but it is really just like an English spring day, although the temperature does drop at night.

    All around Nuwara Eliya you will see evidence of the British influence, houses like country cottages or Queen Ann style mansions.

    The Victoria Park, in the middle of the town, is a lovely place for a stroll or a picnic and is also good for Birding as you get some

    rare birds in this Park. Seasons may be absent elsewhere in Sri Lanka, but here you can read them by the flowers.

    Overnight stay at Nuwara Eliya.

    the Independence Square. From buzzing bazaars to stylish boutique outlets, Colombo is increasingly becoming a popular

    shopping destination within Asia. Odel is Sri Lankas most famous shop, a growing department store in the centre of town.
