[Scenic Sri Lanka Railway Journey] The "Tea Railway" between Kandy and Nuwara Eliya, running through the tea fields, was amazing! 🚃🌿

Sri Lanka's railway route is known as the "world's most beautiful train journey." The most popular route is the scenic route between Kandy and Nuwara Eliya, which runs through the tea fields! Riding the train with its trademark blue body, the swaying window spreads out a sea of ​​greenery, tea fields, mountain villages, and the endless blue sky. The few hours you spend feeling the breeze through the train windows and doors is like a scene from a movie. It's a valuable experience that allows you to feel the charm of Sri Lanka, the country of tea, with all five senses. 🍃 ⸻ 🚆Recommended points ☑️ Many people ride to Ella or Haputale, but the section to Nuwara Eliya (Nanuoya Station) is relatively short and packed with scenery ◎ ☑️ The inside of the train has a local feel! Once you get on the blue train, you'll feel like you're traveling✨ ☑️ The doors are open, so it's popular to stand and enjoy the spectacular view (but be careful!) ☑️ The deserted tea fields and cute station building that appear along the way are also great photo spots📸 ⸻ 📍Basic information • Departure station: Kandy Station • Arrival station: Nanu Oya Station → 20 minutes by tuk-tuk to Nuwara Eliya city • Travel time: About 4 hours (varies depending on the train) • Ticket price: From a few hundred yen (2nd and 3rd class), some tickets include a 1st class observation car (reservation required) ⸻ 💡Points of advice ✔️ Early morning trains are the best for the scenery and temperature. ✔️ Make sure to reserve your tickets in advance! Be careful that they sell out, especially during the tourist season. ✔️ Bring snacks and water for a comfortable ride♪ ✔️ Be prepared for the swaying of local trains and the toilet situation. ⸻ A journey to Sri Lanka's "tea time" on a relaxing blue train. It's sure to be a highlight of your trip☁️🍂#SriLanka #SriLankaTrip #Tea #TrainJourney #Let'sGoOverseas
