Ramboda Falls - Upon arrival in Ramboda, visit Ramboda Falls.

Ramboda Falls, located in Sri Lanka’s scenic hill country, gracefully cascades down a series of rocky outcrops, creating a captivating display of natural beauty. Surrounded by lush greenery and misty mountains, the waterfall offers a peaceful retreat for visitors seeking tranquility and stunning views. Standing at approximately 109 meters tall, it is one of the island’s highest waterfalls, enchanting all who witness its majestic splendor.

Bluefield Tea Factory - Visit a Tea Factory and plantation to see how the world-renowned “Ceylon Tea” is produced. In 1824, the British brought a tea plant from China to Ceylon and planted it in the Royal Botanical Gardens in Peradeniya for non-commercial purposes. James Taylor, a British citizen, introduced commercial tea plantation in Sri Lanka (Ceylon). He arrived in Sri Lanka in 1852 and settled in Loolecondera estate in Kandy. Today, even those who have never heard of Sri Lanka are familiar with Ceylon tea, known for its quality.
