This Chinese settlement is considered to be the earliest Chinese community in New Zealand. It is not very large, and they are all very low stone houses. At that time, many Chinese lived in this place and panned for gold.
It's not big, but it's actually the first Chinese settlement in the area, the first town to be a gold rush, and there are many Chinese who come across the sea to join the gold rush workers.
A simple attraction, almost a glance, but here I think it should be the earliest Chinese community in the foreign model, so I think it is possible to see it.
This place is one of the first Chinese settlements, they are the first to go to the gold-seeking group, here can see their living conditions, it is quite rich.
Many Chinese live here in Arrowtown, Queenstown. Most of them settled here for gold panning over 100 years ago. The Chinese settlement here is a community where Chinese people live together. There are many Chinese elements in it. The business is very lively. Although it is not like Chinatown, it is also worth a visit.
