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.
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.

Highly recommended! The Chinese tour guide explained the indoor and outdoor scenery of the Hobbit Village. At the end, each person was given a glass of wine at the Kowloon Restaurant, and a souvenir cup of the Kowloon Restaurant was also given.
New Zealand 🇳🇿 Hobbytown: The immersive Midland World Tour View (5/5) Hobbytown's scenery is simply postcard-level, completely restoring the Shire scenery in the "Lord of the Rings" and "Hobbit" movies. Whether it is green grass, hobbit caves on hillsides, or well-maintained gardens and crops, it feels like you have really entered the Middle-earth world. The Hobbit Cave in the sun is brightly colored, perfectly blended with the surrounding natural environment, and every angle is beautiful. I especially like the iconic round doors and windows, full of fairy tale colors. Fun (4/5) As a movie lover, Hobbitun is very interesting. Guides will guide visitors through the Hobbit caves, explaining the anecdotes and details of film shooting, making the whole tour lively and interesting. It’s exciting to be able to experience movie scenes, such as sipping a ginger beer at the Green Dragon Tavern or taking pictures at Bilbo Baggins’ doorstep. This is not only a simple sightseeing, but also an immersive experience, making people seem to be part of the Hobbit world. Cost-effective (3/5) In terms of cost-effectiveness, the ticket price of Hobbitun is relatively high. Although it includes a guided tour and a glass of Green Dragon tavern drinks, it can be a big expense for budget-bound tourists. Given its unique film themes and carefully maintained scenes, the investment is worth it for the loyal fans of The Lord of the Rings, which offers an unparalleled experience. However, if only pure nature lovers, may feel slightly less cost-effective. Overall, it was a worthwhile pilgrimage, but it is recommended to plan the budget in advance.

As a famous scenic spot, the Sky Tower is basically a must visit place! The restaurant is also worth a try, as there are different packages available at different times. It is more convenient to book in advance on the website
The Sky Tower is a landmark building in Auckland. Take the high-speed elevator to the observation deck, where you can see the entire city, the port and even the volcanic landscape in the distance. The glass floor area makes you feel weak in the knees, but you can't help but step on it to experience it once. The city lights at night and the soft lights inside the tower interweave into a dreamy atmosphere. The high-altitude walking and tower jumping projects on the top of the tower are very exciting. Even if you don't try it, just watching others challenge it is exciting enough. Standing at such a height, watching the wind blow and the clouds move, there is an indescribable sense of freedom.

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.
It was a nice day. The sky in New Zealand is really beautiful.
You can get a bird's eye view of the whole scenery when you climb to the top of the mountain. You can see the Auckland Sky Tower and the entire Auckland city clearly, which is very nice.

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.
[Scenery] The air is fresh and pleasant, and the green coverage rate is very large.
[Fun] It’s fun to just stroll around and breathe fresh air.
[Value for money] You can go for free, so the value for money is of course good.

The Auckland Harbour Bridge is the only sea-crossing bridge connecting the Auckland CBD and the North Shore. As a transportation hub connecting the north and south parts of Auckland, there is heavy traffic every day. At the same time, the Harbour Bridge also provides a great viewing angle for viewing the scenery on both sides of the Straits. The bungee jumping experience on the bridge is also one of the extreme sports that tourists love, and it is worth experiencing.
The Harbour Bridge is the largest bridge connecting the two banks of Auckland. It is also a unique cross-sea bridge. The entire bridge is a reinforced concrete structure with a very long span. It is also a great place to visit and take pictures. The night view is very good.

The water of Lake Wakatipu is particularly blue! The entire scenic area is completely free. You can take a walk by the lake. There are flowers in spring and leaves in autumn. You can play water sports in summer and enjoy the snow in winter. It is especially suitable for tourism all year round, each with its own beauty! 🌹
Although the lakeside town of Queenstown has only 10,000 or 20,000 people, it is crowded with tourists! There are delicacies from all over the world here, so you don’t have to worry about not getting used to them. 😊👍
Lake Wakatipu is the third largest lake in New Zealand. In addition to its beautiful scenery, it is also the center of New Zealand's outdoor activities. Mountain skiing, surfing, parachuting, jet boats, whitewater kayaking are all available here. The world-famous bungee jumping first emerged here.

Wellington's Oriental Bay is a very beautiful bay. It not only has beautiful coastal scenery, but is also a famous commercial center. Coming here to walk on the sea and then go to the food street in Oriental Bay to taste the food is really a very good choice and definitely worth a try.
Wellington's Oriental Bay is also known as the Oriental Promenade. It is the most beautiful coast in Wellington. The dock of the bay is full of large and small sailboats and yachts. It is very lively and commercially developed. On one side of the bay are tall modern commercial buildings, which feel very prosperous, especially at night. The night view is really beautiful.
