2025 Sri Lankan adventure - Part 3

Buddahs, Temples, Stupas and Mosques.
 

 
  
We went to the highlands where the tea plantations are. 
It was so beautiful here.
This is the Heritance Tea Factory which has been 
transformed into a luxury hotel where we stayed.
We went to the Bluefield Tea Factory and all the 
ladies on our group got to dress up. 
Only women harvest the tea.
Making batik. 
It was very interesting to see how it is made.
The different stages of batik.

 Beautiful saris.
Wedding sari.
Handmade lace dresses at Galle Dutch Fort.
One may have come home with me!

Another fantastic post Christine, would be great to see the making of the batik, the wedding sari is stunning. Did you enjoy picking tea?

Love the temples, the tea plantation & the batik making Christine. I think a lace dress may have had to come home with me too - they are beautiful. xx
