If you're longing for a whimsical escape into colonial nostalgia, a stay at the Grand Hotel or the Hill Club is a must. These iconic hotels are steeped in history, offering a glimpse into the leisurely pursuits of bygone days. Channel your inner British planter as you explore the Queen's Cottage and General's House, or delight in the colonial-style architecture of newer boutique hotels.
But Nuwara Eliya isn't all about living in the past. The city bursts into life in April during the Sinhalese and Tamil New Year, with motor and horse racing events that thrill enthusiasts. If you're a nature lover, the town's attractions, including the golf course, trout streams, Victoria Park, and Lake Gregory, are sure to captivate you. Don't miss the breathtaking Horton Plains National Park, home to leopards, sambar, and endemic bird species. And let's not forget the world-renowned tea factories offering aromatic guided tours and tantalizing tastings.
While in Nuwara Eliya, immerse yourself in local folklore by visiting the Seetha Kovil, linked to the Ramayana tale, and Lovers Leap, a mesmerizing waterfall ensconced in tea plantations. And for those who seek a dash of mystery, be sure to hear the eerie tale of Major Thomas William Rogers' gravestone and the captivating Holy Trinity Church with its old British graveyard. Whether you're savoring a fragrant cup of orange pekoe tea or exploring the stunning natural and cultural landmarks, Nuwara Eliya is certain to enchant you with its colonial charm and vibrant energy.
