点评:This is an old gold-mining town along the Arrow River around 20 km from Queenstown. Historically, gold was found in the nearby river in 1862 and hence the town sprung to live. Today, you find a quaint community in a lovely rural setting. You'll find historic buildings from the late 19th-century, particularly along Buckingham Street.
There is a nice Tourist Information Centre and museum, boutique art galleries, retail shops, eateries, coffee shops bars and hotels. Because of proximity to Queenstown, Arrowtown receives quite a few day trip visitors. There is a lot of free parking near Buckingham, a short walk to most points of interest. On the whole, this is a neat historic settlement that is well worth visiting if you spending sometime around Queenstown. We spend around 2 hours which didn't seem like enough. Will allow for a longer stay to see more of the sights around town next time around.
翻译:这是一个位于阿罗河沿岸的古老金矿小镇,距离皇后镇约20公里。历史上,1862年在附近的河域发现了金子,于是这个小镇便应运而生。如今,这里是一个坐落在美丽田园风光中的古朴小镇。在白金汉大街一带,您还能看到许多19世纪末建造的历史建筑。
镇上设有一个设施完善的旅游信息中心兼博物馆,还有精品艺术画廊、各类零售商店、餐馆、咖啡馆、酒吧以及多家酒店。由于离皇后镇很近,箭镇吸引了不少当日往返的游客。白金汉街附近有大量的免费停车场,从那里步行就能到达大多数景点。总体而言,这是一座非常不错的历史小镇,如果你在皇后镇周边游玩,绝对值得一访。我们这次只待了大约2个小时,感觉时间还不够。下次一定会留出更充裕的时间来好好游览镇上的各个景点。
