  • In this video we will spend the day in Ella, Sri Lanka and go over things to do in Ella, Sri Lanka! Today we will go to the Organic Tea Plantation, go to the Dowa Rock Temple, and then go to one of our new FAVORITE restaurants here in Ella and eat way too much rice and curry! At the Tea Plantation, you will learn how they grow green tea, black tea, and white tea at home using an organic system and then wind down with a peaceful afternoon at one of the most ancient Buddhist Temples here in Sri Lanka!

    I always enjoy watching your Sri Lanka series of videos. I was happy to hear about your interest in Buddhism. I hope you have a good understanding about Buddhism. It's basically not a any other religion instead It's a spiritual Way of Life. Sri Lankan culture has been enriched by Buddhist culture. You may see more cultural aspects of Buddhism there. There are so many Western Buddhists nowadays, who try to practise the practical aspect of Buddhism to understand the True nature of Life. So I wish you both to have more strength to discover the Path of The Lord Buddha ❤😊

    Buddhism is a philosophy that explains the cause and effect. It is not a belief of a dominant virtual entity that lives only in human imaginations and is more logical and does not have blind following, unlike other religions.
    Anyways I hope you all enjoy the stay in Sri Lanka
    May you both have happiness, peace, a long life, and health and not face anyone like that foolish, crazy man in Kandy ☸️ ❤ 🙏 😊

      We chose this one because they use an organic system and we learned how to make it at home (versus at a factory). This way we know how to make our own if we ever choose to ❤️

    just don't pay. The three wheeler drivers are blood suckers and if they do not agree with yours simply skip it and wait for the next one. if you say no then they will come down. this happens for locals as well.

      Yeah sometimes it’s so outrageously overpriced it’s almost offensive! Like we got quoted 3,000 for a 15 min drive!!! Insane! And they wouldn’t come down! Ella is insane for high priced tuktuks!
