English: 
You're watching Vagabrothers,  and this is Sri Lanka.
I'm Alex. I'm Marko, and we're the Vagabrothers-
brothers, vagabonds, and your go-to guides for travel tips,
inspiration, and vlogs on YouTube.
In this series, we're discovering the best of Sri Lanka:
ancient cities,
stunning nature,
rich culture, and delicious food.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the channel.
Right now are in Kandy in Sri Lanka,
and we are heading to Nuwara Eliya on one of the world's most scenic train rides.
This train goes through the hill country, which is where they grow all the tea from Sri Lanka.
It's supposed to be extremely beautiful, and our train's about the board. Let's go.

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

English: 
Alright ladies and gentlemen,  the journey begins.
It's going to take us about
three and a half or four hours
to climb from around 500 meters here in Kandy to nearly
1,800 meters in Nuwara Eliya.
We're going to be climbing up higher into
tea country, into the hill country.
It's going to be green.
It's going to be beautiful.
It's going to be twisty and turn-y,
and it's going to be an adventure.

Chinese: 
好囉~旅程開始了
差不多要花
3.5~4個小時
從海拔500公尺的康堤
爬升到附近海拔1800公尺的努瓦拉艾莉亞
我們越爬越高了
深入茶葉之鄉
一片翠綠
好美
會有很多轉彎
這會是一趟冒險

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Chinese: 
我們在往高地前進
風景如畫
有美麗的熱帶林山丘
在英國殖民的時代，他們把這裡轉變為世界上
產量、品質都最高的茶業產地
這輛火車最初是用來從山區運送茶葉到港口出口
直到今天，錫蘭茶葉聞名世界
不過現在這輛火車主要還是用來載送觀光客，票價也很划算
我們在的是無預約的三等艙
只要大概30元台幣
你也可以花150元台幣預約這些座位
超划算，旅程時間大約4小時
你現在需要做的就是往後坐好，好好享受景色

English: 
We're getting farther into the highlands,
and the scenery is just beautiful.
There're just beautiful jungle hills,
and during colonial times the British converted these hills into some of the most productive and high-quality
tea growing regions in the world.
This train was built to export the tea from the mountains to the coast,
and to this day Ceylon tea is still famous worldwide,
although the train is now more for tourists and is a pretty good deal.
An unreserved ticket in third class, which  this is third class,
is only 100 rupees, which is like 75 cents,
and you can reserve your seats like these ones for five dollars.
It's a great deal. It takes about four hours.
For now all you got to do is kick back, relax, and enjoy the view.

English: 
We're finally starting to get up into the countryside.
Scenery' s changing;
the cities are getting a little more spaced out.
Starting to see some big rolling hills.
But the one thing that has remained constant through the entire journey
is the noise.
It's a loud rickety rackety train,
but it's extremely scenic,
and it's super cool.

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Chinese: 
我們終於快進入鄉村了
景色在改變
城市風景在消退
經過好多山丘
整趟旅程有一件是完全不變
那就是噪音
這台老火車不停發出金屬摩擦聲
但風景真的好讚
而且超酷

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

English: 
We're stopped here in the middle of the hills.
It's super cool to see how many people have their legs and arms sticking out the front of the train.
We're here in the back... that is the caboose,
and we get the whole view.
When the train curves you see the entire length of the train,  everyone hanging out.
It's really cool. I mean, this definitely was created for business purposes to just export
tea all around the world.
Really cool to see how it's been....
basically become a tourist train,
which is a great experience in itself.

Chinese: 
我們現在停在群山峻嶺之間
看到那麼多人把身體探出火車真的很有意思
我們在火車後半段
所以我們可以看到整台車
過彎的時候可以看到每個人都把身體伸出來
超特別的。這輛車真的是為了商業目的而建，
把茶產銷到世界各地
看到它轉變為觀光列車
真的很好玩
一個獨特的體驗

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Chinese: 
好了，我們到努瓦拉艾莉亞了
爬升了超過一千公尺
 
我們要進去了
挖賽
經過了一個很難忘的火車行
我們到了努瓦拉艾莉亞
天啊
這邊的景色也太愜意
溫度適中
天氣宜人、環境翠綠
我們下午有很好玩的安排

English: 
Okay, we have arrived in Nuwara Eliya.
Climbed well over a thousand meters
on this train ride.
We're going in.
Wow
After a super fun train ride,
we have arrived to Nuwara Eliya.
Oh my gosh.
What a refreshing relief.
The temperature is incredible.
It's super pleasant, very lush, and
we have a fun afternoon planned. So stick around.

English: 
We have just arrived to our destination
Nuwara Eliya, also known as "Little England"
as you can tell with the red post box and post office.
To find out why there is a replica British village at the foot of Sri Lanka's largest mountain,
we're going to head just outside of town.

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 

Chinese: 
我們抵達目的地了
努瓦拉艾莉亞又被稱為小英國
你光看這個紅色的英倫郵筒
為了探究為何斯里蘭卡最高山的山腳有一個山寨版的英國村
我們要到鎮外看看

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

English: 
You may be wondering why we're in such a palatial setting.
That's because in the late 1800s, this was actually a governor's home.
It was  a vacation home,  and it was a social club.
There was a golf course built.
Then later on it was converted into a hotel.
But nowadays, it's the best place to come to sample the rich diversity of tea from Sri Lanka,
not to mention pick out one of a little bit of afternoon high tea.
They do it right.  We've had sweet; we've had savory.
We've had these beautiful teas;
We got an oolong tea, which is  like a fermented tea.
It's famous from this part of Sri Lanka. It's famous all around the world.
We got a light and a dark black tea.
Could have got the rose tea.

Chinese: 
你應該正在想我們怎麼會在這麼壯觀的地方
因為這裡實際上是19世紀末殖民總督的家
這是個行宮，也是一個俱樂部
有高爾夫球場
它後來被改造成旅館
現在則是享用錫蘭茶葉的最佳去處
也別忘了享受下午茶
它們味道掌控的很棒
我們享用了這些優美的茶
還喝了發酵的烏龍茶
這在斯里蘭卡這一地區很有名，也世界知名
還有清淡或濃厚的紅茶
你也能喝玫瑰茶

English: 
I got the rose and French vanilla tea,
which I really like because it has a bit of floral and then also sweet,
which is a really good combination.
It's delicious.
Funny fact:
Lipton, as in  Lipton's Iced Tea, was started right here.
Lipton was a guy who in the 1800's started a tea plantation.
I think he was from Glasgow,  originally.
He came here and just started making tea,
and tea's a huge industry.
Now it employs a million people in Sri Lanka,
and it accounts for 4% of all the entire island is dedicated making tea.
That's a lot of tea.
Again, cheers to tea.

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Chinese: 
我點了法式香草玫瑰茶
我很喜歡，因為它有花的香甜味
很棒的組合
好吃
有趣的小知識:
立頓茶，就是發源於此
立頓是一位19世紀在此設立茶莊的人
他應該是來自英國葛拉斯哥
他來這裡就是為了種茶
茶葉是很大的生意
現在它在斯里蘭卡有一百萬的就業人口
整個國家4%的國土都用來種茶葉
真的很多茶呀
再一次，敬好茶

Chinese: 
努瓦拉艾莉亞因茶葉有名
這裡是斯里蘭卡的茶鄉
錫蘭茶之鄉
我們現在來到貝都羅茶莊
我們要來學一下茶葉的文化和生產流程
我們正在貝都羅茶莊
這附近最有名的茶莊之一
海拔大約680公尺
斯里蘭卡種茶葉最佳的地點之一
這個區域從西元668年就開始種茶了
目前我們茶莊的產量大約

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

English: 
Nuwara Eliaya was made famous by tea.
This is the tea region in Sri Lanka.
It's the home of Ceylon tea.
We've come to Pedro Estates,
and we're going to learn a little bit more about tea culture and production here in central Sri Lanka.
We are at the Pedro Estates in Nuwara Eliya,
one of the prime properties on Ellis Plantation.
It is situated about six thousand eight hundred meters above the mean sea level.
It's  one of the best tea plantations in Sri Lanka.
Here in Budra state we have tea around 668
Here we produce around

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Chinese: 
每年有800~4000公斤
能夠親眼來觀看茶葉的故鄉真的很棒
加上我們也去過台灣和中國
那裏的烏龍茶也是斯里蘭卡過去的
這個茶莊的茶葉很高級
很顯然的，要把茶葉從茶樹送到你的杯子裡過程很辛苦
而且那些茶農
都是原住民後裔的女性
他們是塔米爾人，塔米爾人來自南印度，150年前在英國殖民的時候被抓過來這裡
她們靠秤重算薪水，每天每人用手大概可以採集20公斤

English: 
eight hundred and thirty thousand kilos.
Well, it is super cool to come here and to see where tea comes from,
especially having been in Taiwan and China
where the oolong teas from Sri Lanka,
the ones that are grown on this estate, are highly prized.
Obviously, it's difficult work to get the tea from the tree to your cup,
and the people who are responsible for picking the tea
are actually a number of women who are descendants from the original
Tamil laborers that were brought here from southern India during British colonial times over 150 years ago.
They are paid by weight and each person gathers about 20 kilos of tea by hand every single day.

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Chinese: 
所以為了近距離觀看採集的過程
我們要見一個嚮導，他會展示怎麼採集錫蘭茶
這是好的茶葉
我們要同時摘兩片葉子和它的芽
有時候也能這樣摘
摘下來了，這是硬的葉子
看見了嗎? 深綠色
通常我們就不摘深綠色的
它會落下成為肥料
好了，現在我們在著裝
我們要去採茶了
把木棍放下去...棍子以上就是要摘的部分
一次摘兩葉一芽或三葉一起拔
好喔，三片葉子...像這樣嗎?
對，或者像那樣兩葉一芽
哪個是芽? 這個啊
我們怎麼判斷啊
變成芽之前它是另一片葉子

English: 
So to learn how the process is done,
we're going to meet up with a local guide who's going to show us how to pick Ceylon tea.
This is the ideal leaf.
This is the way to pick like two leaves and a bud.
Sometimes we can go for like this picking also, see?
Two leaves and a bud and now the leaf falls. And this is the hard leaf.
See?   It's a dark green.
This is normally (one) we are not picking.
It falls down and becomes fertilizer.
All right, so right now we are getting attired .
We're going to be picking tea.
Across.  And the stick above the leaf is only where to pluck it
Like two leaves and a bud or three leaves.
Okay, three leaf and then like this?
Yeah - two leaves and a bud like that.
What's the bud?  This is the bud.
How do I know it's going to land in there?
Actually, it's another leaf before it's looked bud.

English: 
Four and a half kilograms fresh leaf become one kilo of black tea.
2.5 gram for one cup of tea.
We need minimum like 10 gram leaves.
We come to 4 and 5 gram like that.
There's no 10 gram leaf.
They don't think about that when you're having a cup of tea,
how much effort goes into it.
People just  drink tea like....
if you buy something at the supermarket, you're not thinking about how much work goes into it.
But this is really... but now we will.

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Chinese: 
4.5公斤的茶葉會變成一公斤的紅茶
一杯茶2.5克
一杯茶至少要10克的葉子
這樣應該有4~5克吧
沒有10克的茶葉
人們喝茶的時候不會想到喝茶竟然
要花費那麼大的力氣
我們很單純地喝著茶
在超市買茶葉絕不會想那麼多
經過這次經驗，下一次我一定會想起辛苦的茶農

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

English: 
I definitely...it would take me a very long time to get my daily quota.
But I think it's also like.... the skill is knowing
which ones you can pick
because right now every single one I'm looking at, I'm like.... ay?
When they started,  the workers can't do that much fast,
but they get a experience.
Sometimes some ladies can pluck more than 18 kilos.
20 -25 kilos also they can pluck.
And this is a traditional job, right?
Traditional job.
How many generations of people?
Maybe three, four generations.
Wow. Like your mother and your mother before?
Just popped inside the factory just to get a little bit better of an idea
how tea is processed once it's picked.
This is a huge factory.
It's obviously been around for a while,

Chinese: 
我也是，如果要靠我一個人摘，應該會花很久才能達成每天的工作配額吧
我想訣竅就是要有辨識的技能
知道要摘哪個
像我現在看著茶樹，完全矇了，感覺每片葉子都長一樣
剛開始她們也無法速度很快
隨著經驗累積
有些女士就能摘超過18公斤
甚至20~25公斤
這是傳統的職業吧?
對啊
已經傳承幾代了?
三或四代吧
挖賽，所以你的媽媽和阿嬤也都這樣嗎
現在我們進入工廠一窺製程
 
這是一間大工廠
很明顯已經有一段歷史了

Chinese: 
但機器依然運轉
看到茶葉經過那麼多手續才進入你的茶杯真的很有趣
好啦，今天探索了高地、茶葉、火車行，非常充實
一切都很讚
美麗的國度
努瓦拉艾莉亞的
氣氛和溫度
都是我們這趟斯里蘭卡行目前為止最讓人難忘的

Sinhala: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

English: 
but the machines still work. Everything still functions.
It's really cool just to see how many different stages tea goes through before it ends up in your cup.
Well, it's been excellent day exploring the highlands, the tea, the train.
Everything was really cool.
What a beautiful place,  beautiful views.
Nuwara Eliya,  definitely the coolest both
temperature wise and vibe wise, in my opinion,
place that we've been so far on the trip.

Chinese: 
從康堤搭火車翻山越嶺
品嘗，學習茶葉的起源和製造過程
與茶農互動
真的是難忘的經驗
也是斯里蘭卡行的精華
所以別離開
明天我們要去Ella
斯里蘭卡背包客的中心
我們會更深入斯里蘭卡的群山與雨林
保持關注
會有很多大自然、健行、探索

English: 
But taking the train from Kandy up through the rolling hills,
then getting to try the tea and to understand where it comes from and understand the process
and meeting the people who are picking it and making it.
Just a really, really cool experience overall
and definitely one of the highlights so far on the trip.
So stay tuned.
Tomorrow, we're going to go down to Ella,
which is like the back packing center of Sri Lanka.
Should be really cool. We're getting more into the hills and the jungles out here in Sri Lanka
So stay tuned for that.
It'll be nature vibes, hiking, exploration.
