NewParadise Spice Garden

About NewParadise Spice Garden

Spice gardens are a popular fixture in the Hill Country around Kandy, offering visitors a chance to see tropical plants growing in their natural environment. At a place such as this, guides typically lead small groups along shaded paths, pointing out specimens like cinnamon, cardamom, pepper, cloves and nutmeg at various stages of growth. Explanations cover how each spice is cultivated, harvested and processed, giving some practical context to ingredients that might otherwise seem abstract. Visits usually conclude with the opportunity to purchase spice-based products, including oils, teas and culinary blends. These gardens suit travellers with an interest in botany, cooking or simply the agricultural traditions that have shaped Sri Lanka's economy and culture over many centuries.
