New Zealand Tourist Attractions

Kaitaia, Auckland, Rotorua and more.

Kaitaia

Kaitaia is a town that is close to Cape Reinga.

Kai means food and Taia means oil.

Kaitaia has many tourist attractions, like the far north regional museum, the ninety mile beach and the sand dunes, and the Cape Reinga walkway.

Auckland

Auckland is New Zealand's largest city, with a population of about 1 million.

It has the Southern Hemisphere's tallest structure and it's called the Sky Tower.

The most popular newspaper, The New Zealand Herald, is printed here.

Rotorua

This city has lots of Maori people in it and lots of steaming natural pools.

These natural pools come from hot springs.

Then there's the Skyline Skyrides, with lots of activities and fun games to keep the whole family excited. There is also Wai-O-Tapu, a massive collection of bubbling hot mud pools and geysers.

Wellington

This city is the capital city of New Zealand, and also holds the Beehive, New Zealand's parliament building, although there are no bees in there, there's lots of insects there to suck all the money out of you in the form of tax.

Christchurch

This place is freezing cold!

There are also some ski fields in this area if you're interested. Other tourist attractions include the Canterbury museum, botanical gardens, Cathedral Square, and the arts centre.

Also check out the Sumner beach. Besides stunning views, there are lots of restaurants nearby to fill you up.

Invercargill

Not much things to see here, although you could try out one of those delicious Bluff oysters.

Some tourist attractions are the Stewart Island flights, Venture Southland, and the Invercargill brewery.

Queenstown

It's even colder out here!

The Skyline Skyrides won't keep you interested for long.

Some other things to keep you interested in Queenstown are the Cardrona Adventure Park, Frogz white water sledging, and the Kawarau jet.

Nelson

Not much to see and do here, but you can still ride the boats to some of the area's more remote bays, islands and beaches. I recommend you to visit the Abel Tasman National Park and walk the Abel Tasman Walkway.
