Christmas In Summer | Queenstown

#christmastrip How about turning everything on it's head. As strange as it sounds, Christmas in Summer is an absolutely normal in Southern hemisphere. And one of the most stunning landscapes to experience it is in Queenstown in New Zealand. Queenstown is a picturesque resort town located on the South Island of New Zealand. Known as the "Adventure Capital of New Zealand," Queenstown is renowned for its wide range of outdoor and adventure activities. From skiing and snowboarding in winter to bungee jumping, skydiving, and hiking in the warmer months, it's a haven for adrenaline enthusiasts. It is a gateway to some of New Zealand's premier ski resorts, including The Remarkables and Coronet Peak. These resorts attract winter sports enthusiasts from around the world. The town is situated on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, offering opportunities for water activities such as boat cruises, kayaking, and fishing. The lake's crystal-clear waters against the backdrop of mountains create a stunning setting. The surrounding area, including Gibbston Valley, is part of Central Otago, known for its vineyards and wine production. Wine tours and tastings are popular activities for visitors. Tips and Tricks ⁉️ As a resort town, prices in Queenstown might be more inflated than in other surrounding towns. Towns like Frankton, Fernhill, Arrow Town may offer cheaper, yet much more limited options. (Queenstown is the heart and solul of the area) Queenstown offers a vibrant culinary scene with a range of restaurants and cafes. The nightlife is lively, with numerous bars and clubs catering to different tastes. The surrounding landscapes have been featured in several movies, most notably in the "The Lord of the Rings" film trilogy, showcasing the natural beauty of the region. #mytravelhacks #spintheworld #wecreate #queenstown #newzealand
