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

Avon River should not to be missed. we will be carried by a punter dressed in traditional Edwardian attire! You will be slowly be brought along the water quietly past woodlands, weeping willows with the leafy banks of North Hagley Park along side the Christchurch Botanic Gardens. You can also take a Punt ride from Worcester Street Bridge through Christchurch’s central city.

The weather in Mount Cook is very good, but at that time, I booked a snow plane. The helicopter return activity was cancelled due to the poor weather on the mountain. It was a pity for two consecutive days. I drove from the Tweizer base to the airport under the snow mountain to ask and wait. By the way, I took the shortest walking route and the scenery was not bad.

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.

Lakes
旅の径
New Zealand has many lakes, mostly surrounded by mountains, winding shorelines, clear lakes and pleasant scenery. It is a great tourist attraction. Located in the middle of the South Island, Lake Pukaki is unique and worth a visit. One is that the lake is rich in rock particles and minerals, and under the sun, it maps out a distinctive blue, dreamy and attractive, and has the reputation of "blue milk lake". The other is that the lakeside is the best position to overlook the Cook Mountains. On the sunny day, standing on the south Alps of the north bank of Pukaki, 55 kilometers away, is clearly visible. The highest mountain is Mount Cook. The third is the lifelike statue of Tar sheep. Tar sheep native to the Himalayas, live between high mountain cliffs, are a first-level protected animal in China, and are listed in the world as a "near-risk" animal list. In 1904, an Englishman brought five Tar sheep to the South Island, because there was no natural enemy, Tar sheep flourished in the Cook Mountains, becoming the favorite animal for European and American hunters to hunt in New Zealand. In 2014, the handsome and powerful statue of Tar sheep was erected on the shore of Lake Pukaki to commemorate the achievements of the people concerned in protecting the sheep worldwide. Taking a photo with the statue is the best choice for all tourists. Fourth, the shore of Pukaji Hunan, opened the Cook Mountain salmon farm, the salmon meat produced is compact and fresh, cheap and good quality, many food lovers come to taste and buy.
