[NZ] The world of elves from The Lord of the Rings

#OverseasTravelRecord Kaitoke Regional Park is a beautiful natural park located on the outskirts of Wellington, New Zealand. For fans of The Lord of the Rings, it is a mysterious place that appeared in the movie as Rivendell (the hideout of the elves). This is a place where the great nature of New Zealand and the world of fantasy blend together, inviting visitors to a dreamlike space. The charm of Kaitoke Beach is the breathtaking scenery. The crystal clear river shines in beautiful blue and green, and a deep forest that seems to have existed since ancient times spreads along the river. When you step into this place, you can feel the silence and elegance of the elves living there. The calm and mysterious atmosphere of this place makes it easy to understand why it was chosen as the filming location for Rivendell, and you even get the illusion of being in Middle-earth itself as seen in the movie. There are also information boards about Rivendell in the park, and hiking trails that take you around the filming locations of The Lord of the Rings are also maintained. Walking along the forest trails, enjoying the sunlight filtering through the trees and the sounds of the babbling brook, you'll feel as if you're experiencing nature from the elves' perspective. Caitlin Beach is also family-friendly, with plenty of picnic areas. Whether you want to relax in a quiet environment or immerse yourself in a fantasy world, visitors can enjoy the beach at their own pace.

Datil

Datil is simply a type of plum, but it has now become Proust's madeleine nestled in the heart of Paris' 3rd arrondissement. The chef at this restaurant takes pride in his dishes, which skillfully use vegetables and grains. It's both confusing and incredibly comforting, showcasing an exceptional level of meticulous care. By skillfully combining flowers, vegetables, fruits, grains, and fish, a harmonious tribute to nature and the environment is created. The flavors are astonishingly unique, and the presentation of the dishes is beautiful. The staff were incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming. Every moment of this dining experience was enjoyable. Besides wine, we headed to one of the largest terroirs of Chenin in Montlouis-sur-Loire. With a beautiful bottle in hand, it elevated the culinary dance throughout the night. Location: Datil Restaurant Address: Paris, France.
