Hassan Hall

★★★★★

The best time to visit Nuwara Eliya is from February to April when the weather is pleasant and the flowers are in full bloom. This period is ideal for outdoor activities and sightseeing. However, Nuwara Eliya's cool climate makes it a year-round destination, with each season offering its own unique charm.
