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 coldest places on the island, but is really like an England spring day although the temperature does drop at night.
The Victoria Park, in the middle of town, is a lovely place for a stroll or a picnic. Seasons may be absent elsewhere in Sri Lanka, but here you can read them by the flowers, which bloom in spring (March to May) and fall (August and September). These are the ‘seasons’ when low-country folk flock to NuwaraEliya to escape the sea level heat and humidity.
