New Zealand - One of the Most Beautiful Countries In The World

"Clean", "Green", "God Zone" - these are but a few of the names given to New Zealand. And little wonder when you consider that because of its relatively small population and isolation, it still contains some of the most pure and beautiful scenery anywhere to be found.

Just take for example the fresh water that you can drink. In New Plymouth, a small city located in Taranaki, you can drink water straight from a well that has its source under Mount Taranaki, that is full of natural minerals and is some of the most healthiest waters you can possibly drink.

The sky is clear blue, beautiful oceans from turquoise green in Kaikora to pearl blue in Picton with beaches ranging from black iron sand to golden and even white sand. If you are fortunate enough to visit this country then you will be amazed by some of the beaches located in the Bay Of Islands.

Many of these beaches are home to a wide array of edible shellfish. Many of the beaches are so isolated that very few people visit them and so have an abundance of fresh fish. Recently the Woman's World surfing champs were held in New Zealand due to its amazing surf beaches.

As you travel the countryside you will be amazed by the green coverage of grass that's like a deep velvet carpet as most of New Zealand's export is dairy and meat products. This carpet of green is then covered by much native bush and pine forests. For those who like skiing, there are a number of ski mountains in both the North and South Islands. One such world famous place is Queenstown located at the bottom of the South Island.

The South Island is full of Mountain ranges, bush, Lakes and rivers. Lakes so clear you can see the bottom. If you havnt done so already then Google New Zealand images and see for yourself whats in store for you before you visit.

Due to its temperate zone the weather is warm and good for growing all sorts of flowers and vegetables. But if you do visit during summer remember to bring a hat some shades and some sunscreen as the ozone layer is thinner in this region of the world and so burning in the sun is highly likely.
