Hatton
The winding valleys of Hatton make it the cynosure of the island’s tea production. Walk along rolling fields of tea plantations that span the horizon and get a better understanding of the love, passion and effort that goes into your daily cuppa. A visit to a tea factory reveals the story of ‘pure Ceylon tea’ and how it is produced from leaf to cup. The famous Adams Peak is also located close by and during December to May individuals of all faiths and backgrounds make the sacred overnight journey to the summit in order to experience and witness a spectacular sunrise. A gorgeous photo stop is found at the small but lovely colonial Warleigh Church, or walk along the banks of the Castlereagh Reservoir with its sweeping panoramas. A number of waterfalls are also located in and around Hatton.
