The Hill Country Trains of Sri Lanka


In February 1998 I journeyed by rail from Colombo, at sea level, to Kandy and from there on to the hill station of Nuwara Eliya (pronounced new-REAL-ee-a). This page captures some of the magnificent images from this journey, including many pictures of the fertile tea estates which carpet the rugged and beautiful countryside. (If you're interested in seeing more pictures of Sri Lanka, please be sure to visit my British Era Hotels of Sri Lanka page.)
