Ella is a small hill-country town in Sri Lanka’s Badulla District, surrounded by tea plantations, cloud-covered mountains, forests, and deep valleys. Its elevated setting gives the area a cooler climate than the lowlands, while the Ella Gap opens dramatic views toward the southern plains. The town itself is compact and serves as a base for exploring the surrounding countryside by foot, road, and the railway that winds through Sri Lanka’s central highlands.

St. Moritz, located in Switzerland’s Engadin Valley, has been attracting visitors for over 150 years, long before the term "alpine resort" became common. It was here in 1864 that winter tourism was born, when a hotelier made a wager with British guests that they would enjoy the snow just as much as the summer sun. They returned, and the rest is history. The town has since hosted the Winter Olympics twice (in 1928 and 1948) and remains a favorite for skiing, snowboarding, and ice sports.
