Enjoy the outdoors at Cocoon Hills

Widely known for its production of tea and the chilly climate, the city of Nuwara Eliya has certainly secured a special place in the hearts of many local and international tourists. Located in the hill country and often referred to as ‘Little England’, Nuwara Eliya overlooks acres of picturesque mountains and buildings from the British era that leaves a hint of the colonial influence on the city. The city tends to mimic an old English country town making it a nostalgic getaway for European tourists. However in more recent times the influx of tourists has become truly global with visitors from around the world escaping the warm summer heat.

The city usually welcomes the most amounts of tourists during the month of April as locals from all over the country also flock to the hill country to enjoy school vacations and the Sinhala and Tamil New Year. The month of April in the hill country is also known for the blooming of exotic flowers, horse-racing, motor races and many more fun activities.
