Nuwara Eliya tea area

Sri Lankan black tea (formerly known as Ceylon black tea) was introduced by the Scots from Fujian in the 19th century to replace the coffee industry that was dying due to pests and diseases. In just a few decades, Sri Lanka has become one of the largest tea regions in the world, and the town "Nuwara Eliya" that developed accordingly has become famous due to its high altitude, cool climate, beautiful scenery, and British-style architecture. Known as "Little Britain", it is still a holiday destination. Visitors can visit tea gardens, learn about the cultivation and processing of tea, and taste the sweet taste of authentic Sri Lankan black tea at the place of origin.

Sri Lanka traditional performance

Kandy is the center of traditional arts in Sri Lanka, and performances originating from celebrations, combining dance, traditional costumes, and music, best showcase the characteristics of Sri Lanka. The gorgeous costumes of the dancers are inspired by nature, such as the patterns of peacocks; the masks of the dancers are related to the brave lions. The exorcism, blessing and celebration sections in the performance are rich in Sri Lanka's traditional beliefs and optimistic nature, bringing tourists a unique and unforgettable cultural experience.

Stilt fishing is an ancient traditional fishing method in Sri Lanka. It is jokingly called "the most awesome fishing method in the world". It is a unique cultural landscape on the southwest coast of Sri Lanka and a must-see scenery when traveling to southern Sri Lanka. This peculiar fishing method involves fishermen wading into the sea, sitting on a simple wooden frame standing in the sea, using a fishing rod without bait, and waiting for the fish to take the bait. It has to be amazing. Such skills passed down from generation to generation not only require good balance, but also have to withstand the double test of sea breeze and sunlight. At the same time, you must also pay close attention to prey in turbulent waters. It is indeed not an easy task. No wonder it has become one of the iconic images in Sri Lanka today.

Traditional fishing on stilts

The town of Matale is famous in Sri Lanka for its fertile soil and terrain, where people began to plant various spice plants. Here you can find most of the spices and health-preserving herbs used in South Asian cooking.
