Agenda di Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka sepanjang tahun

Puncak keramaian — Thai Pongal, Adam's Peak pilgrimage season

• Musim

  Western quality season

  1 Jan – 15 MarMusim panen

  Cold nights and dry days on the western slopes give the year's most prized picking, and the factories run it separately. Estate tours are worth doing in these weeks rather than any other.

• Bahaya

  Ground frost at night

  5 Jan – 25 Feb · biasanyaDingin ekstrem

  Six degrees of latitude off the equator and still frost on the tea in the small hours. Guesthouses here have no heating and most travellers arriving from the coast are badly underdressed. Sumber ↗

  Tamil harvest festival marked across the tea estates with rice-boiling rituals, temple visits and a multi-day estate holiday; liquor shops in the district close for it and some plantation work pauses. Sumber ↗
