Self-driving tour in South Island, New Zealand 🚍A visit to the gold rush town on Arrowtown Mountain

Drive across the South Island, passing through spectacular snow-capped mountains and rolling mountain ranges 🏔️The scenery along the way is breathtaking. Coming to Arrowtown, a small town near Queenstown, is like walking into a time tunnel. This place was once a hot spot during the gold rush era, and now it retains its complete historical streets and cottages. The strong retro atmosphere makes people travel back to the 19th century in a second. The town is surrounded by mountains and the air is fresh, especially in autumn and winter, when yellow leaves and white snow are intertwined, and the picture is like a postcard. If you are taking a self-driving tour of the South Island, Arrowtown is definitely worth a detour to stop and take photos and experience the charm of the quiet mountain town!
