We didn't expect an English Town in Sri Lanka! 🇱🇰 Nuwara Eliya
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 лют 2022
- I visited Nuwara Eliya, a town famous for tea plantations and for being "little england", it has many English/ British names for their roades and houses as well as some English architecture. The weather was also very cloudy which made it look even more like England.
Nuwara Eliya is known for its temperate, cool climate - the coolest area in Sri Lanka. Nuwara Eliya's climate lent itself to becoming the prime sanctuary of the British civil servants and planters in Ceylon. Nuwara Eliya, called Little England, was a hill country retreat where the British colonialists could immerse in their pastimes such as fox hunting, deer hunting, elephant hunting, polo, golf and cricket.

Lions Club International is a charity, and their members are called "lions". You can see the other names on there also had "Lion" in front of them
Machaaan hondai..... woow harry we are addicted to your videos and Ali, macc, luke's too. You are doing a great job, keep it up .....
thanks so much youre very kind!
@@harryjaggardtravel 👍👍👍❤❤❤
It was called " little England" mainly because during colonial times, it was a refuge for the ruling Brits from the heat of Colombo. Here they indulged in golf, horse racing & other recreational activities which reminded them of home. Otherwise when people mention the architecture, there is the famous post office & the Grand Hotel, which could be anywhere in England.
so interesting thank you
There are tons of hotels in nuwaraeliya with beautiful views. Try to find good one.. 👍highlight areas... lake , Hakgala Park, city park, Horton plains national Park, waterfalls
Machan Harry Watching videos of the three of you (Harry ,Mac,Ali) is one of my daily activities these days....Awesome macha..a...a...a..n🏃🏃
Same here loving it
Bro

Hi Harry. Nice first impression of Nuwara Eliya.
Maybe you become a multilingual after travelling in these fascinating areas.
Love from The Netherlands.
i would love to learn more languages
This city was built in British colonial era by British empire's. Special for tea plantation.
so interesting, feels like home lol
Yes. The British wanted an "england" in Ceylon. And they chose N'eliya for that.
Nuwara Eliya is a very beautiful town, the Airbnb is very comfortable,
If you know history, you should know the relationship between England and Sri Lanka,
There's a nostalgic feeling through see Harry there today,
Curious why you have such a surprised expression after drinking black tea? Thank you for sharing！👍😃🙏
努沃勒埃利耶區是一個很漂亮的小鎮，那家民宿很舒適，
如果知道歷史，應該都會知道英格蘭與斯里蘭卡的關係，
今天看到哈利在那裏出現，有一種穿越時空的懷舊感覺，
很好奇為何喝完紅茶你會有如此驚訝的表情？謝謝分享！
yes i know the relationship! it was very cool seeing this place. Thanks for watching
@@harryjaggardtravel You are very welcome!
Thank you very much too，take care！👍😃🙏
Brilliant video 👍 only just found u and can't stop watching!! Keep up the brilliant work 👏 🇬🇧🍺
Nice to meet you sir thanks for filming this short anecdote, enjoy your expedition find out more about destinations travellers never had seen.
Thanks Pal.
I saw you with Ali yesterday near Majestic City getting your shoe repaired. I recognised Ali . What a small world we live in. Hope you had fun walking around in that area
You mean Majestic city in Colombo ? So they're back in Colombo :)
@@All_About_Coc yes yesterday I saw them near MC.
18:13 that is a type of fig tree, called "Bo" tree in Sinhala. It is under one of those trees that Prince Siddhartha became the Buddha (aka attained enlightenment) in India, so Bo trees are common in Sri Lankan Buddhist temples.
There is a Bo tree in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka (called Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi), and that tree is the world's oldest living tree with a known planting date (288 BC). Also, Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi was planted using a branch from the actual tree that Prince Siddhartha attained enlightenment in India!
wow thanks for the information this is so helpful
Thank you for showing our country to the world. 😍😍😍😍

Very cool Harry
It's so nice (& kinda 😄) to hear how you guys learn & pronounce Sinhala words the best way you can. It means so much to us❣️ But something like 'machan' is a term which is common among guys, specially in young ages.. not for adults or women mostly.. Anyway they'd be surprised and appreciate you for using them giving the worthiness to Sri Lankan things 🇱🇰

Go to Horton plains national park (there u can hike Thotupola mountain - 2hour hike , see many waterfalls , see world's end, breathtaking sceneries).... it is near Nuwara eliya, if u go there go early ,around 6am in the morning
wow sounds so cool, next time!
We are very proud of you Harry🙂🙂💐
Nice video as usual Harry. However I am hoping you did Littlemore exploring in Nuwara Eliya and we get to see more interesting side of Nuwara Eliya in your next video. In this video you only covered less than one km span in the center of the city which is not what this city is about at all. You have to explore more around the city outside the city center and the attractions to get more of idea to why locals call this place little England. It has become more touristy place recently and lost its British reminisce but you can still find some places shows what this place used to be like. Anyway nice video man. Keep up the good work!
👍❤ Nice keep going brother 👍🏻 ❤
Bruva I just love your content and I watch all of your videos. MashaAllah you are a legend! The way you use Insha'Allah in your life, trust me you are going places for sure! May Allah protect you and showering his blessings upon you. Ameen.

Hi Harry, thanks for visiting our beautiful country... just wanted to give you some information regarding the English names, that's because Sri Lanka previously named Ceylon, was a British colony for over 100 years, thats the reason we have some names that originated from places in Britain. You may see the same thing in other British colonies as well. I currently live in New Zealand and most places have British names for places here as well. Hope u guys enjoy your trip and stay safe.. really enjoying ur content.
Kia Ora! I live in NZ, born and bred here. I grew up in Christchurch, the most English city in NZ, Sadly it was flattened by the earthquake years ago and even the famous Cathedral has gone as well as many other famous land marks - my old gothic style high school etc. Kia Kaha!
@@juanitarichards1074 Kia Ora, Juanita, yes what a devestation it was, I live in Auckland. New Zealand too is a beautiful country, I am very lucky to experience the beauty and the NZ culture. Cheers Kia kaha
Thank you visit srilanka anjoy nuwara eliya is its like little england.i hope you like srilanka ❤️🇱🇰👍👌
Woooow harry u stay little England....good luck..🇱🇰❤🇬🇧🙏🇺🇸❤🙏🤝🇱🇰🇱🇰welcome to srilankan
Visit worlds end in hortain plaines with guys it will be amazing
I reckon because of the weather people think it's kinda similar to England not because of the structures or buildings and there is a place called 'little england cottages' which is actually similar to England..
It call little England because of the weather....enjoyed your Video
Patta machan
U should visit the places nearby nuwara eliya called hortain plains and also the nice waterfalls out there..tea plantations are also cool to see..futher more;there is another place called ambewela milk factory

❤❤❤❤ hi harry I Love you I hope to see you again in our country Philippines. God Bless you to your travel around the world
Hi Don't forget to visit old Golf club,and Race course God bless
Beautiful blog. Are you visiting Jaffna
There are a lot of buildings built during colonial times by the British themselves. They called Nuwara Eliya ‘Little England, probably because the weather was closer than the rest of the country, and not because the locals thought this is what England looked like.
Love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️
You and World Nomac should also do a UK travelogue together. We would love to see UK.
Bro you are a real person, you speak kindly to everyone in Sri Lanka 😊
its my pleasure
with love and regards...
You should try 'The Plains Green' hotel...
