Queenstown - Arrowtown

Arrow River -1860年,人们在箭河里发现了金矿,从此改变了这座小镇的命运和历史。


夏天河水几乎干涸,说不定可以在这里找到一块金矿哦!

沿着河岸走,你会看见电影Lord of The Ring 的影子。

Chinese Settlement
淘金热期间,大批华人涌入谋生。由于受到很多种族歧视和不公平的待遇,生活和居住条件都极差。几年前,纽西兰政府不止一次为这件事慎重的道歉。

用泥筑成的小屋


前来参观的小孩都赤着脚满山跑。这是在纽西兰许多小镇发现的一件有趣的现象。就像我小时候,喜欢赤脚到处玩乐。
捐款入场

在箭镇只有两条街道,最好的交通是行步,这样你才能体验它的小和悠哉。
迷你型的邮政局
西药店
地产经纪
既迷你又很牛仔的旅店
咖啡屋-曾是矿业高职的故居
迷你的银行
迷你的博物馆 -不过它确实值得参观

在这里得找个地方喝杯咖啡尝尝小菜。

他们在露天享受日光

我们却找个地方遮阳
南岛西岸的传统名菜 -银鱼派

很特别的一道美食


喜欢这座后花园,墙上的玫瑰开得绚丽灿烂。

Queenstown - Homestay at The Ferry Hotel

QUEENSTOWN - 女皇镇

紫色小花 白色玫瑰

The historic Ferry Hotel - Such a warm and welcoming place to stay.

到达的那一天天气转凉,体贴的主人早已为我们点好了火炉,让我们取暖。智最兴奋,他终于体验到了火炉和烟囱,我知道那一晚,小脑袋里有很多幻想(Three Little Pigs里的大野狼是从那里掉下来的呀!)


这家旅店原来是百多年前,这里矿业很旺盛的时期,为很多到这里经商的过客提供服务的。已经转手好几回了。后来现任英国裔的主人来到这里游玩,又随兴的想在女皇镇住下来,后来买下了这家旅馆住下。这里只有两间房供租,很多住过的旅客都会再回来。我希望有一天能在这里度过秋天。
Some of the collections are more than 100 years.
I like the ski board.

-------------------------------------------------------
Not only Glenys & Kevin are welcoming, so as the lovely Buckley. Before we left, he even got into our car as if wanted to follow us.


丰富的早点,让我们倍感温馨。

亲切的主人啊,谢谢您给我们留下那么美好的回忆。也为您祈祷 !(早餐时,两个女人就很投契的聊了起来。在谈话中得知他们嫁回英国的女儿刚得了癌症,心里一阵阵的绞痛。天下父母心啊,他们的心情,我当然可以理解。只能给他们祝福)

Strolling at the Shootover River

The Ferry B&B Hotel is beside the Shootover River.

The lane on the river walk.

A beautiful morning.
又见山茱萸。

Historic Shootover Bridge

(网站资料

http://www.ferry.co.nz/ - The Ferry Bed & Breakfast Queenstown is a charming, historic 125 year-old former hotel。We are next to the famous old Shotover bridge, built in the gold mining days, now renovated and a major visitor attraction. The Shotover river joins the Kawarau river and is home to the Kawarau jet boating safaris. The areas of Queenstown/Glenorchy were film locations for the Lord Of The Rings movies.)
-----------------------------------------------------------

The harbour waterfront area and the town centre.
It was raining and quite cold, we hopped into a Korean Restaurant for a cup of hot soup and Kimchi Rice Roll and had a good chat with the Korean guy.

We shopped for our dinner.


An unforgetable place.

在农庄的屋子位置都不集中,人们都把信箱放在一起给邮差方便。

Queenstown-The Bungy Jump & Gibbston Valley Wines

The Kawarau Bridge Bungy Jump and Gibbston Valley is about 10 minutes drive from the Arrowtown and 20 minutes from Queestown. Both are interesting .


Get a bottle of the famous pinot noir for dinner.

The vineyard

Interesting quote.

The Bungy Jump at the Karawau Bridge.



Lake Wanaka
According to the locals, you will find the most beautiful view of fall colours here in the autumn.
