It is supposed to be one of the coolest places in the Island, but it is really just like an English spring day, although the temperature does drop at night.
  
  All around Nuwara Eliya you will see evidence of the British influence, houses like country cottages or Queen Ann style mansions. The Victoria Park, in the middle of the town, is a lovely place for a stroll or a picnic. Seasons may be absent elsewhere in Sri Lanka, but here you can read them by the flowers, which bloom in the spring (March to May) and the fall (August and September). These are the “seasons”when low-country folk flock to Nuwara Eliya to escape the sea level heat and humidity.
