Hokitika is my last stop in New Zealand, a coastal town that can be reached by 2 1⁄2 hours ride from Ferranz Joseph Glacier. It is a very quiet and laid back town with an iconic bell tower in the city centre, the red tree is a New Zealand Christmas tree, the red flowers fall on the ground to form a natural red carpet, very beautiful. Because it is not very popular, there are few restaurants, and people who are not used to Western food can only eat.

    Hokitika, a town with a permanent population of less than 3,000, was once the oldest settlement on the west coast of the South Island, where gold mining workers settled in the mid-18th century. The town is beautiful and quiet, because there are quite a lot of tourists who transit and rest in the traffic lanes to the two major glaciers. In front of the clock tower and on the beach, they have left the shadow of punching people. The mining and processing of Maori jade (green jade) is the mainstay of the town, and the jade shops are everywhere on the street, and buyers who know the goods often find their favorite treasures.

    Hokitika is also called Jade Town. The town is very small and there is nothing fun, but the sunset on the beach in the evening is a beautiful place. The iconic attraction is the English alphabet of Hokitika built by branches.

    Hokitika is a beautiful seaside town on the outskirts of Cairns. It is picturesque, quiet and peaceful, and the air is very fresh. It has a sense of paradise. It is worth coming to live for a few days and enjoy a quiet life.

    A day from west coast to east coast, driving on the way like a twisted chip, looking at the winter sea in Hokitika, walking through the clouds on the way to Christchurch, walking around and seeing rainbows several times. This is a seaside town suitable for shooting, many Chinese people are here for this sofa to take a photo!

    Hokitika was the first settlement after the discovery of gold on the west coast in the 1860s. It was an important river port, but many boats were unfortunate here, and Hokitika Bay was a sandbar that changed with every tide. The town's ancient trails are filled with lovely old buildings, green jade jewelry and art galleries. The traditional green jade origin is flowing into the sea north of Hokitika. Hokitika's signature program is the Wild Oat Festival in late summer.

    Hokitika is a beautiful coastal town on the edge of Cairns. The town is small, but very clean and beautiful. The beach is very long, but not a beach but a pebble beach. The center of the town is the clock tower, which is a European clock tower with a hundred years of history, and is a landmark of the town, which is worth visiting.

    Drive along the west coast to Hokitika, it is said that the sunset there is beautiful, but the sunset is also a chance, we are very lucky to see the most beautiful sunset, this town is small and quiet, a place to calm people.
