Great Western State Tea Factory
About
Meet Great Western State Tea Factory, a local business in Sri Lanka, working in the tea trade at Talawakelle. The address places it in the hill country of the central highlands.
First-time visitors should expect a working tea factory rather than a retail shop, set in the cooler, wetter uplands where the crop is processed. Visitors give the venue a 4.8 out of 5 rating from 18 reviews, a small but strong record of feedback. Reaching the factory from the main resorts and towns on Sri Lanka is practical, since road and rail links connect the hill country with Colombo and Kandy. Talawakelle sits within the central highlands, the island's tea-growing belt.
The venue keeps a page at http://estates.dilmahtea.com/our-estates/great-western-estate/. Five photographs accompany the listing, giving a fuller visual record of the factory.
Theravada Buddhism is the main religion of Sri Lanka, and full-moon Poya days are public holidays. Sinhala and Tamil are the official languages, and English is widely used in administration and tourism. Blue whales and dolphins are seen off the south coast, and sea turtles nest on several beaches. Sri Lanka was known as Ceylon until 1972, gained independence in 1948, and has ancient cities at Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa.
