| NUWARA
ELIYA
Cool, rugged and picturesque, 1,890
metres above sea level, Nuwara Eliya was modelled
on an English village in the early 19th century.
Its period houses, trim lawns, pretty flower gardens
and scenic landscape captivate visitors. Set in
the heart of the tea country, a visit to a tea estate
is a must. Nuwara Eliya also has Asia's finest hill
golf course, rainbow trout in its clear, cold streams
and is within visiting distance of Horton Plains,
a beautiful high plateau, sanctuary of rare highland
birds, butterfies, orchids and wild-flowers and
also the 3,000 ft. sheer precipice known as World's
End, one of the worls's great natural sights. |
