特色介绍｜Feature introduction

Sri Lanka

With documented history dating back 3,000 years and evidence of prehistoric human settlements dating back at least 125,000 years ago, Sri Lanka has a rich cultural heritage. The earliest known Sri Lankan Buddhist writings, collectively known as the Pali Canon, date from the Fourth Buddhist Council held in 29 BC. Sri Lanka's geographical location and deep harbor have made it strategically important, from the earliest ancient Silk Roads to trade routes to today’s Maritime Silk Road.

Ceylon black tea production area

[Nuwara Eliya] is the tea-producing center of Sri Lanka's mountainous area. It is 1,889 meters above sea level. You can see large and small waterfalls along the way. The black tea produced here is high mountain tea (more than 1,200 meters is considered high mountain tea). The Chinese Yunnan black tea tree was introduced during British colonization and has now become one of the four major black tea producing areas in the world. The temperature here is relatively low, so you need to wear long sleeves. Because the architecture is very British (it was once ruled by the British), the local area is also called "Little England".

After feeding, the turtles are taken to the sea and released when they are a few days old.

A spectacular rock column visible from miles away, Sigiriya is geologically the hardened magma plug of an extinct volcano. Historically, the origin of the ruins is disputed and is believed to be either a royal fort built during the reign of King Kasyapa (477-495 AD) or a Buddhist monastery.

You'll pass beautiful murals and a sheer "mirror wall" before reaching the giant stone lion's claw, which gives the rock its name "Lion Rock". The old staircase leading to the top passed through the mouth of a crouching lion, but today only the massive paws remain, indicating the massive proportions of the head. The hilltop covers an area of ​​1.6 hectares and was originally completely covered by buildings, but today only the remains of the royal castle are visible.

It takes 1.5 hours to 3 hours to climb up the rock and back. (Depending on your fitness, age and crowd.) There are approximately 1,200 steps to the top of the rock, where you'll be rewarded with panoramic views and, of course, the sense of accomplishment of completing the climb.
