Tea Factory Visit in Sri Lanka | Experience
It wasn’t really all that long ago that Sri Lanka’s Hill Country was largely a wild and ragged sweep of jungle-clad mountains, but then along came the British and they felt in need of a nice cup of tea. So they chopped down the jungle and turned the Hill Country into one giant tea estate. And you know what? The result is mighty pretty! Ceylon tea is now famous across the world, and visiting a tea estate, staying in a converted tea planter's cottage, or merely sipping a cuppa in a local tea shop is one of the great pleasures of travelling in Sri Lanka.
Tea production is one of the main sources of foreign exchange for Sri Lanka. And Sri Lanka is the world's fourth largest producer of tea.
