Do you feel tired from a busy day? You definitely need a break or refresher on your mind, body, and soul. There are many choices such as exercise, yoga, or a holiday to Bali. If you've ever been to Bali, I suggest your holiday to Queenstown, New Zealand.


If you look at a map of the world, New Zealand is an island nation located below the continent of Australia.

You will be amazed by the Otago tourist town built around Queenstown Bay. You can watch the spectacular vistas of the mountains around it.

Clearwater in the lake will make you spellbound. Remember to enjoy the luge adventure combo. The hustle of the city in the evening you can enjoy in this tourist town. 
You will also enjoy the cool scenery and beautiful hills, a lake with a cable car up. This view of the hill in Queenstown will instantly relieve stress.

Have you watched the movie trilogy "Lord of the Rings"? Apparently, most of the movie was filmed in Queenstown. You'll feel the awesomeness of scenery in this area while enjoying kayaking, jet boating, hiking, rafting or skiing. I was also fascinated with the natural scenery in Milford Sound. The area is not far from the Fiordland National Park, World Heritage, which is very beautiful.                   
Don’t forget to try Ski Planes in Mount Cook. Mount Cook Ski Planes made aviation history in 1955 with the first fixed-wing Ski Plane landing on the Tasman Glacier. This is an incredible experience. Mount Cook is halfway between Christchurch and Queenstown. Aoraki Mount Cook Airport is approximately 50km from the Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park turn-off.                      

You can test your adrenaline in Queenstown because here you can try Bungy jumping, whitewater rafting, jet boating, and other outdoor activities.

Superb views of Mount Cook or Aoraki are fabulous and visited by a lot of couples on their honeymoon. Mount Cook is located in The Southern Alps in the Canterbury region. Eternal snow can be seen on the top of Mount Cook.


If you are a lover of wine, make sure you taste the wine, Pinot Noir. This wine is typical of the South Island, one of the 75 wineries on this island. It is said that drinking wine can make you healthier, especially for your heart health.
   
Make sure you travel to the south of New Zealand in the future. You will definitely get an exciting experience that will not be forgotten.

You do not need to be fluent, but the local people are very happy if you greet and talk to them even if you only know a little of their language.
