Centre of NZ~跳跃于全纽西兰最中心的点





25 May 2010

-这里的旅游景点之一,包括许多有关全世界或全国之“最...”什么的。
-上星期休早班时去了Nelson逛逛,先参观Nelson Cathedral Square,蛮漂亮的教堂。
-然后沿着山路走上Centre of NZ,从全纽国最中心的点俯瞰整个Nelson和Abel Tasman,还挺壮观的。
-可惜的是,老天总爱在我们休假的时候洒泪。所以照片里还是少了蓝天。回来时,出门前晾的衣服都在嗮雨了!
~For a surveyor, it is the centre because it is the origin point of the Nelson Land District and Nelson is the central land district amongst 12 other land districts, hence the 'Centre of New Zealand'. Every boundary in the district has a coordinate in terms of the point which can be seen directly below the 'needle' situated behind you.
-The Zig Zag walking track to the top of the hill has been popular since it was first cut in the early years of Nelson settlement.
