We went on an excursion to this city with Jiminy. He speaks Russian perfectly. The Sri Lanka mosaic tour was perfectly organized. Everything was on time, we visited all the sights without any hassle. Jiminy takes great photographs and shows all the beautiful places and angles. The results are beautiful photos. He told an interesting story. We stayed in a luxury hotel with a view of the mountain and waterfall. I sincerely recommend this cheerful, positive guy to everyone, his contacts are Instagram/ gemimi_tour

This is one of the oldest Post Offices of Sri Lanka. One gets transported to the bygone era, in this age of Internet where the usage of such services has shrunk. A must visit place if you are in Nuwar Eliya. It was heartwarming to see many people came over to see this functional Post Office. They have displayed a few very old artefacts which was so unique, has never seen such a stuff in any other Post Office anywhere. Sri Lanka has maintained its historical charm ! As such Nuwar Eliya is a beautiful small hill station with colonial vibes and must be visited if you come to Sri Lanka.
This place is located in the heart of the city, very close to Victoria Park entrance 2.

Stopped here a couple of times as the morning light was better. It has a 'busy' look with its various peaks in a Tudor style. One of Sri Lanka's oldest post offices, it appeared on a postage stamp in 1990. While there is tourist accommodation on the upper floor where the postmaster used to live, broader efforts to turn the property into a hotel were thwarted in 2017. It is still an active post office.

Visited the post office to buy and send postcards back to England. Nuwara Eliya is known as Little England. Buildings and park very English. Lovely feeling of all is right with the world.

We had a quick stop at the very cute British era post office in Nuwara Eliya. The kids got stamps for post cards home to friends.
Lovely backdrop and throwback to another time.

A slice of the United Kingdom is in this post office which contains the original parts of an old post office. It is one of the iconic sites of Nuwara Eliya

Coming to this post office was nostalgic. The building looked like a historical building and this is a perfect place to take a pic and post in your instagram. The surroundings of the post office is also very clean and nice to take pic.
