JOURNEY TO MIDDLE EARTH CHRISTCHURCH, NEW ZEALAND Christchurch is a vibrant metropolis with a thriving tech sector, three world-class universities, daring street art and blooming gardens. But it’s the city’s backdrop of the Southern Alps that will most likely speak volumes to bibliophiles and movie fans. Leaving Lyttelton, arrive at remote and beautiful Mt. Potts High Country Station. The moment you set eyes on this location you’ll understand why it was chosen as the setting of Edoras in the epic Lord of the Rings trilogy. Even if you’re not a Tolkien aficionado, you’ll be left breathless by the unspoiled beauty of this landscape of rugged mountain ranges, sparkling lakes, blue rivers and brisk alpine air.
