Dolphin Watching
juki235
When you come to Acaroa, you must take a boat out to see dolphins. About 12 tourists take a cruise ship and drive into a wide area of water, and the dolphins will appear in a short time. They will jump around the boat and make a pleasant scream. If you feed them some dolphin food, they will even swim up to you and let you stroke them, it's really super cute.

Really meaningless, 4d effect is not as good as domestic, there are only a few blue penguins, three Huskys, and the bumpy off-road in the middle of a truck really makes me doubt life, blizzard is to experience the wind below minus 20 degrees indoors

The town of Akaroa is taken without reservation in advance. There are many ticketing points in the town. The yacht is small and well equipped. The captain and the explanation are very, very friendly. Seeing the children also wiped sunscreen, the children were drenched in the sea, and immediately took a towel to wipe their face and clothes. The weather was good that day, and many dolphins jumped along with the yacht. It was a good travel experience indeed.

It turns out that the scenery is not as good as the online ones, and the scenery on the way to New Zealand is actually not worse than this. In short, it's okay. It was quite quiet when I went out. When I returned, I came up with a Chinese tour group. It was noisy for a long time, so that the train experience was discounted.

The mountain road is very small, winding, and there seems to be no scene. I didn’t expect the ranch to be very beautiful. The photo angle can also take the sea under the mountain. The alpaca is also very good, very clean, there is a lady who carefully explains, the interaction is very pleasant, it is worth it.

Museums
旅の径
To travel to Christchurch, you should visit the Canterbury Museum. The appearance and connotation are worth seeing. Appearance. The museum in the city center, next to the botanical garden. The gray-bottomed white-framed buildings are both elegant and dazzling. In front of the museum is a statue of William Ralston, a distinguished politician and leader in Canterbury. The figure is lifelike. Connotation. Compared with China, the museum is medium-sized. But the rich and varied exhibits fully showcase New Zealand's unique Maori culture and history, showcase New Zealand's natural and colonial development, showcase human exploration and cognition of Antarctica, and can learn more about New Zealand's historical culture.

Squares
旅の径
The Cathedral Square is located in the heart of Christchurch, New Zealand's South Island. It is the historic center of Christchurch, once the main venue for public gatherings, and now it is the city's transportation center, the center of activities for tourists (especially pedestrians), and a must-check in place to visit Christchurch. The most vicissitudes. The Christchurch Cathedral (the square is named after it) was built in1864-1904, and two earthquakes occurred during the construction period. After its elegant shape and 63-meter-high Gothic minarets, it became a classic landmark of Christchurch. The 6.3 magnitude earthquake in February 2011 seriously damaged the construction of Christchurch. The steeple of the cathedral collapsed, half of the tower remained, and only the middle temple was completely preserved. The damaged building has not been repaired yet, surrounded by cold scaffolding. The most eye-catching. In the middle of the square, a memorial statue of John Robert Codley, the founder of Christchurch in Canterbury. The most literary. On the side of the square, there is a giant chess board, the red/black chess pieces are50-80 cm high, and each one looks very heavy and difficult to move (two masters are focusing on playing and playing chess, the author did not experience the weight of the chess, leaving a regret). The coolest. In 2001, to celebrate the millennium and the 150th anniversary of the establishment of Christchurch and Canterbury, the sculpture "Millennial Grail" was placed in the square. The 18-meter-high sculpture is a long, tapered shape, abstract shape, decorative image, outer circle hollow, outer wall silver gray, inner core blue. Between the cascading, the leaves of 8 native native plants such as the leaves of New Zealand national flower-silver foliage, twisted and stretched upward, symbolizing vitality and prosperity. The most convenient. The retro tram has a station on the side of the square, which becomes a beautiful scenery. 2.6 kilometers of operation lines and 17 retro trams of stops can easily reach the main landscape of the city.

The retro tram is a beautiful scenery in Christchurch. 2.6 kilometers away, $25 fare, around the city center for a week, connecting the main attractions, can be unlimited rides at 17 stations in one day. On the slow journey, accompanied by the sound of "jingling", listening to the explanation of the driver of the car, watching the beautiful scenery along the street, unknowingly came to the next attraction, it was really affordable, comfortable and interesting.
