    • Te Papa Museum
      Te Papa is one of the few museums in the world that can claim to have been built from scratch in the last decade. Opened in 1998, New Zealand's National Museum is widely regarded as one of the finest in the world.
    • Great Barrier Reef
      To experience the timeless beauty of the undersea world, you can't get much better than Australia's Great Barrier Reef - the largest coral reef system in the world, which offers incredible opportunites for diving and snorkelling.
    • Kakadu National Park
      The size of Ireland or Denmark, Kakadu National Park is one of the world's last great unspoiled natural landscapes and, since 1992, has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
    • Mount Ruapehu & Tongariro National Park
      Mount Ruapehu is familiar to more people than know it - it was used as Mount Doom in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy. The ultimate landmark of Middle Earth is in reality a still-active - and just as awe-inspiring - volcano. It smokes and bubbles in the centre of Tongariro National Park, an area of incredible natural beauty, a holy space for the Maoris and home to "the best one-day walk in the world".
    • Fox Glacier & Lake Matheson
      There are two particularly fabulous glaciers in New Zealand - Franz Joseph and Fox. However, Franz Joseph doesn't boast immediate proximity to one of the most beautiful lakes in the world, Lake Matheson, so Fox gets the top vote.
