Sri Lanka is rich in black tea and gemstones.

Sri Lanka is a famous black tea producing area in the world, mainly due to its unique geographical location and large temperature difference between day and night. Like coffee, the taste of black tea also changes with altitude, so black tea produced in mountains above 1,200 meters is best. The eastern part mainly produces Tinpula tea, and the central part mainly produces Aaliya tea.
