Blue Field Tea Factory

Bluefield Tea Gardens was started by a visionary banker, Maurice Worms, in the early 1800s. Acquiring forest lands in 1841, he initiated tea cultivation, marking the birth of the small tea garden that evolved into Bluefield Tea. Over the years, Bluefield grew, weathering challenges and contributing to Sri Lanka’s tea industry. Today, Bluefield Tea is a story that continues to unfold with every harvest and every poured cup, inviting enthusiasts to savor the essence of this extraordinary journey.

More than just a functioning post office, this historic building reflects the colonial past of Nuwara Eliya—often referred to as "Little England". Inside, you’ll find vintage-style counters still in operation, along with souvenirs and postcards that can be mailed with a special stamp—a unique travel memory for many.
