Where is New Zealand? world map

New Zealand lies between Oceania, the South Pacific, Antarctica and the equator.

Tasman sea borders Australia in the west, with a distance of 1600km, and Tonga and Fiji in the north. New Zealand consists of North Island, South Island, Stewart Island and some small islands nearby, with an area of 270,534 square kilometers and a coastline of 6,900 kilometers. The territory is mountainous and the plain is narrow, with mountains and hills accounting for more than 75% of its total area.

The distinction between the four seasons is not obvious, and the temperature difference is not big. Most of them belong to temperate maritime climate, with mild climate, abundant sunshine and rainfall throughout the year, and flourishing plants. Rich in hydropower resources, 80% of the country's electricity is hydropower. The forest area accounts for about 29% of the land area, and the ecological environment is very good.

New Zealand and Australia:

Australia and New Zealand are usually drawn together by people from other parts of the world, because in the southern hemisphere, where there are relatively few countries, these two close lands have similar history and the same language.

Now, after more than a century of "separation" between these two countries, Australia is ready to end this long love-hate relationship and formally propose to New Zealand. Australia is vast and rich in natural resources, but it is difficult to enjoy all kinds of scenery in a short trip. The distance between scenic spots is too far, and the journey is tiring. New Zealand is full of scenery, and the journey is short. You can see different seasons or different scenery along the way.
