Survey the beautiful sweeping views at Lipton’s Seat
Undoubtedly ones of Sri Lanka’s most impressive views, Lipton’s Seat provides uninterrupted views over the beautiful lush landscape of Sri Lanka’s Hill Country and its splendid tea estates.
Named after the Scottish tea baron Sir Thomas Lipton, the spot was Sir Thomas’s favourite place to peacefully meditate and look over his scenic tea estate. Today the wide reaching views over the emerald hills are enjoyed by travellers who hike or drive up the scenic route past the beautiful tea plantations. On a clear day the views rival those at Worlds End at the Horton Plains.
