Kamburupitiya
Kamburupitiya is a town located 12 miles north of the southern town of Matara, Sri Lanka. Located in a wet, hilly zone, some of the world's best cinnamon, tea with high tannin are grown.
Traditional employment is growing rubber and working on the rice paddy fields in the low-lying lands, but these are not popular with many from the younger generation. Less well-known are the treasure troves of Tourmaline and the garnets that lie below some of the fields.
