Why is Nuwara Eliya tea famous?
Nuwara Eliya Tea has made a significant contribution to introducing Sri Lankan tea to the world. Since Nuwara Eliya is more than 6,000 feet above sea level, its mountainous terrains, a cool climate, clean air, frequent light rains, and fog are conducive to prosperous tea cultivation. With all these, tea cultivation has been developed prosperously in Nuwara Eliya. So, for many years, the taste of Sri Lankan tea has spread to many countries worldwide, without any shortage of flavor. Famous tea factories such as Pedro and Damro in Nuwara Eliya are among the leading tea producers in Sri Lanka. Also, these factories allow tourists traveling to Nuwara Eliya to explore the tea production process and tea plantations.
