Hidden Gem! Travel Through the Forests and Railways of New Zealand

Hidden Gem! Travel Through the Forests and Railways of New Zealand On the Coromandel Peninsula in New Zealand, there is a hidden gem that you cannot miss - Driving Creek Railway. This train will take you on a magical journey full of natural wildness. Its birth is due to the persistence of potter Barry Brickell. In 1970, he settled down on this undulating, forest-covered land to make pottery. The transportation problem gave birth to this narrow-gauge railway. Who would have thought that it would extend from a private transportation line to a dreamlike sightseeing route? Taking the train is like starting an adventure through the forest. The wheels collide with the tracks, making a crisp sound, and together with the birdsong, they play a symphony of nature. Outside the window is endless greenery, and the trees in the primeval forest grow wantonly, with branches and leaves swaying in the breeze. Occasionally, you can catch a glimpse of birds, living freely in this habitat. In the distance, the blue sea comes into view, contrasting with the green mountains and forests, bringing a strong visual impact. The whole journey takes 1 hour and 15 minutes, and every minute is wonderful. Buy tickets in advance on the official website, $52 for adults, $28 for children aged 4-16, and free for children under 4. There are many trains, basically every hour, making it very convenient to travel. Driving Creek Railway is not just a railway, but a poem that integrates nature and humanity. Come here to check in, leave an unforgettable travel memory between the mountains and railways, and feel the unique charm of New Zealand.
