To avoid the overpriced tourist spice gardens, head straight to the main Bandarawela central market. It is a massive, bustling hub where locals buy all their fresh produce and spices by weight.

You will find authentic, fragrant roasted curry powders, fresh cinnamon, and locally grown tea being sold at normal, local prices. It is a fantastic, chaotic sensory experience.
