Skyline Queenstown

Family trip, bring children with you. For children, the scenery on the top of the mountain is not impressive, but the skyline luge is really fun.

It was fun. I loved the beef and desserts at the self-service BBQ. Drinks and beverages need to be paid for by themselves. The sheep shearing performance was also quite interesting, especially the sheepdog herding sheep performance. How can there be such a smart dog? Because it was cloudy that day, the surrounding scenery was not as beautiful as under the sun, but it did not affect my mood. I could go down to the steamship to watch the workers add coal. It was also the first time I saw it. It was magical. Overall, the experience was good. It is one of the must-try projects in Queenstown.

Wānaka

wanaka is a nice place that can travel with family . Kids and Parents will love that and the people there is so nice and friendly.

The sightseeing plank road runs on the south bank. Some of the winding walking trails that start at the camping area on the lake are great places for a wonderful holiday. Sailing, swimming, sailing and fishing are popular activities in the summer. Good place.

Larnach Castle

It is worth a visit to the castle. It feels different. The weather has different experiences. It is very good. The garden is average. But the place to eat inside is very good. The wood-burning stove is particularly comfortable. The price is also suitable for a very good place.

Baldwin Street - The Steepest Street in the World

Baldwin Street - The Steepest Street in the World The steepest slope in the world. Guinness World Records certified the steepest street in the world, with a slope of 35°, each time you go forward 3.4 meters, the altitude rises by 1 meter. I am used to walking on the domestic road and I really feel breathless. ​ Climbing up the slope for a group photo, looking at the slope and sighing can only wait down the slope.

Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony

Taking photos is not allowed in the conservation center, and the flash will affect the penguins returning to their nests. The little penguins are so cute that we bought penguin dolls after seeing them. The quality of tourists is not very good, mainly Asian tourists. They always break the rules of keeping quiet and not using mobile phones.

Whitestone City

Oamaru White Stone Town, South Island, New Zealand Walking into the quiet White Stone Town, it feels like going back to the most prosperous port city of Oamaru in the 19th century. The buildings in the town are all built with solid white stone, which is probably why it got its name! A European style travels back to the prosperous Victorian era. It is a unique town that combines history and humanity!
