| This picture IS worth a thousand words. |
Standing at the top of the lookout point over Queenstown and seeing The Remarkables in the background, I finally understood the definition of the word "breathtaking".
This is the most scenic town I have ever been to. Standing at the top of Bob's Peak is like looking into a painting. The clean, crisp mountain air is refreshing, and the peacefulness of the town makes being there that much more enjoyable. Queenstown is as close to perfect as can be. |

|  | Queenstown was the 3rd stop on my trip to New Zealand. I took a flight from Wellington which connected in Christchurch. The flight alone was amazing, and I was looking out the window the entire time taking pictures.
I didn't come here for the extreme sports. I came here only to see the views, and it was well worth it. I was happy just sitting outside relaxing and enjoying the scenery.
I was only supposed to visit Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch because I was short on time, but I made sure I booked Queenstown after I saw a picture of it. Queenstown made my whole trip to New Zealand, and it is what I will remember the most. |
