This captivating map showcases Ceylon's thriving tea industry, revealing a landscape dotted with sprawling estates that have shaped the region's identity. In Tamil Nadu, India, women gracefully traverse paths amidst verdant tea estates nestled within the breathtaking Anaimalai Hills near Valparai. Their presence is a testament to generations of labor and dedication that have made these plantations thrive. Moving westward to Apulia, Italy, we encounter majestic Cerignola olive trees - living relics steeped in history. These ancient giants stand as guardians of tradition and bear witness to centuries-old cultivation practices passed down through generations. Traveling further east brings us to Malaya in 1931, where British Empire Marketing Board posters proudly showcase an abundance of tropical delights. The vibrant market scene depicts pineapples from Malayan plantations - a testament to their bountiful harvests and contribution to global trade. Venturing into Sri Lanka's Hill Country reveals picturesque scenes on Haputale's tea estate. Here, rows upon rows of meticulously cultivated tea plants create an enchanting vista against rolling hills – a testament to human ingenuity harmonizing with nature’s beauty. Meanwhile, Champagne Louis Roederer welcomes visitors with its exquisite wrought iron portico – an elegant entrance befitting one of France's most prestigious vineyards. This plantation stands as a testament not only to viticultural excellence but also architectural grandeur. Journeying across continents takes us next to Borneo where British Empire Marketing Board posters celebrate Borneo Sago – showcasing this valuable crop grown on vast plantations that sustain local communities while contributing significantly towards international markets. However, it is important not just romanticize plantation life without acknowledging its dark history.
