ARROWTOWN NEW ZEALAND

A history that dates back to the New Zealand gold rush of the 1860s, Arrowtown has recently found riches of a different kind in the form of tourism.
Located just twenty kilometres from New Zealand’ s adventure capital, Queenstown, this sleepy hamlet is fast becoming regarded as a centre of its own, one providing a glimpse into a past steeped with history of migrants seeking fortune.
Buckingham Street, the main centre of Arrowtown, has an array of shop fronts similar to those of a bygone era.
