The Horton Plains National Park is an attraction that is considered a must-see in the region and is also considered as one of the most popular national parks in the country.
The national park is home to a variety of flora and fauna making it an interesting place for wildlife and nature enthusiasts alike.

It starts to get a little foggy around noon, and you might not be able to get a clear view of the surroundings.
Another great excursion to do with kids during your trip is to take a journey to the Bluefield Tea Gardens.
This is a tea factory that is home to a spectrum of varieties of tea that has been freshly prepared. The excursion will include a tour of the facility as well as a tasting experience of a series of tea.
