Executive summary by darmansjah
As folks in the northern hemisphere start anticipating
summer and the warmth it promises, people down in the southern hemisphere start
bundling up for the cold. Embrace the cool and head to Hanmer Springs, one of NewZealand’s premier alpine spa destinations. The town is built around a
popular hot spring, which was discovered in the late 19th century. Many
flock here to indulge in a pampering session soaking in the thermal waters of
the hot pools. If sitting still is not your forte, there are two skiing areas
around the region – the Hanmer Springs
ski field and the Mount Lyford ski
field – where you can have a go carving up the snow slopes.
From Singapore, fly into Christchurch International Airport with
Singapore Airlines. Hanmer Springs is a short 90 minutes drive away.
Originally built in 1932, Heritage Hanmer Springs has been
beautifully restored to its original Spanish design, boasting 54 well-appointed
rooms, eleven villas, lush gardens and amazing mountain views (from US$120; heritagehotels.co.nz/hanmer-springs).
