fairy-smile:“The price was similar to booking through the Larnach Castle official website. You only needed to show your electronic reservation form to exchange your ticket at the entrance. 🎫 Very convenient. Although Larnach Castle is small, it is very well maintained and well worth a visit. The gardens, in particular, look vibrant and vibrant even in winter.”

yccui:“Baldwin Street - The Steepest Street in the World The steepest slope in the world. Guinness World Records certifies this street as the steepest in the world, with a slope of 35°. Every 3.4 meters you go, the altitude rises by 1 meter. I am used to walking on domestic roads, so I really feel out of breath walking here. Those who climbed up the slope took a group photo, and those who sighed at the slope could only wait at the bottom of the slope.”

It is the second largest city in the South Island and the fourth largest city in New Zealand. In the mid-to-late 19th century, the Scottish discovered gold mines nearby and gradually prospered. It was once the largest city in New Zealand and has a large number of Scottish-style buildings. ​”
