The train ride through Sri Lanka hill country is rightly famous. Carriages wind past waterfalls and endless tea plantations between Kandy, Nuwara Eliya and Ella.
Break the journey in the cool highlands: tour a tea factory, hike to Ella Nine Arch Bridge and Little Adam Peak, and breathe the crisp mountain air.
Book a window seat in advance, or simply ride in the open doorway as locals do, and watch the green roll by.
