    The skyline in Queenstown is similar to other cities in New Zealand, and Luge is worth a try. However, buying multiple tickets may be worth it, but it may be a waste if you get tired of playing. My friend just finds queuing and taking the cable car very tried, although she bought six tickets but only played twice.

    The explanation was very humorous, but the speed of speech was very fast, which was a bit hard to adapt to. It was a pity that I didn't download the APP, which had Chinese explanations, which might sound more three-dimensional. When we left, each person was given a cup. The cafe in the restaurant was quite delicious.

    You won't find the entrance on the ground level, take an escalator inside the hotel and go down to the basement. Although i find the admission fee is a bit high but a tall sky tower overlooking the city of Auckland is a must see... don't miss it.

    Milford Sound is like a magical movie! When you are on a boat, giant waterfalls on both sides of the river crash into the emerald sea from the cliffs, such as Stirling Falls, and the water vapor hits you with rainbows. The steep cliffs are covered with moss, seals lie lazily on the rocks, and the snow-capped peaks in the distance are looming in the clouds. It is even more amazing when it rains and fogs, the mountain peaks are shrouded in mist, the sea is dark blue, as if the whole world is quiet and only the sound of water remains. It is so shocking!

    I visited it twice within two months. The buffet is good, the scenery is great, the luge is fun, and it is a must-visit place for parent-child travel. It is best to avoid holidays, otherwise be prepared. The queue for the slide is about an hour.

    Standing on the shore of Lake Tekapo, I was shocked by the deep blue, as if the earth cracked a gap, the sky was poured into the lake. The lake surrounded by snowy mountains was calm as a mirror, reflecting the changes of clouds and light. When participating in Earth & Sky stargazing, the Milky Way poured down, the stars were within reach, and the guide's explanation brought the mystery of the universe close to you. Walking along the lake, the white figure of the Shepherd's Church blended with nature, and the tranquility was divine. This is not only a feast of vision, but also a destination for the soul, every moment makes people intoxicated with the pure and tranquil nature.

    Although Mount Eden is not high, you can overlook the whole of Auckland from the top of the mountain, and the view is particularly wide. The remains of the crater are clearly visible, covered with green grass, a peaceful green. It is not difficult to walk all the way up. You can also see sheep grazing on the hillside. Their leisurely appearance makes people can't help but take a few more photos. The wind on the top of the mountain is very strong, but it is also very fresh, which makes people feel particularly bright. It is a good place that does not require tickets or planning, but can leave very deep memories.

    Auckland Central Park is not like the common landscape parks in the city. It is more like a natural forest. The winding tree-lined paths and the tall trees on both sides make you feel like you are walking into the original green field, with thick fallen leaves and soft soil under your feet. The air is filled with the fragrance of plants, which is very suitable for jogging, walking the dog or just taking a quiet walk. There are also several sculptures and small bridges hidden along the way, which adds a little fun. Although it is not far from the city, you can completely escape the rhythm of the city once you enter the park.

    Wanaka Lake is the fourth largest lake in New Zealand. It is the location of the popular tourist attraction, a lonely tree, about 70km northwest of the destination, Queenstown. The tree in my mind should look like Figure 5, but in the season without rain, "loneliness" can be so close to us [snickering]. It was dusk when we arrived in Queenstown. ​

    It's not as big as I imagined. It's just a pedestrian street, about ten meters wide. There aren't many people. Maybe it's because it's Easter, so many shops are closed. But there are many luxury brands, and the prices are reasonable. There is also Gucci, which is known as the cheapest in the world.
