New Zealand Campervan Holiday 2008: Invercargill, Southland Museum and Queen's Park
PLEASE SUBSCRIBE!
We have always enjoyed visiting Invercargill, in Southland at the bottom of New Zealand's South Island. Queen's Park occupies a large area near the city centre. Parking our campervan there, it was an easy walk into the main part of town.
The Southland Museum and Art Gallery is in Queen's Park and has some fantastic exhibits, some of which appear in the video. The coffee shop isn't bad either!
If you enjoy gardens, aviaries, children's playgrounds and such like then you'll love Queen's Park.

Invercargill Water Tower
A major landmark in Invercargill, the water tower was built in 1889 to pressurize the city's water supply.
This tower, which combines utility with profuse adornment, was built in 1889 to support the city's first high-pressure water supply tank.
Invercargill's water tower has been described as an architectural treasure and a prime example of Victorian architecture. For the engineering profession the Invercargill water tower demonstrates their ability to provide a utilitarian structure which is aesthetically pleasing.
Old Invercargill: Southland Museum
Old Invercargill and Whats On Invers wanted to get behind the glorious history of our region with a new video series. Each episode, Old Invercargill will feature a new icon of yesteryear, highlighting the beauty of Southland.
Southland Museum & Art Gallery
Our mysterious white pyramid sits at the south west end of Queens Park! In 1990, the previous brick building was enclosed within a 27 metre tall pyramid - the largest in the southern hemisphere! With all manner of exhibits within, from The World's Fastest Indian Burt Munro, to live Tuatara, exhibits about Southland and the perils of whaling/sealing around Antartica - see the castaway shipwreck supplies!

After yesterday, checking out the Moonshine Museum and St James Theatre in Gore, we have found even more things to do in Gore in the Southland region of New Zealand! Join us for the Eastern Southland Gallery and Dolamore Park in Gore!
This morning, we pop into the Eastern Southland Gallery, an art gallery in Gore and a free thing to do in Gore! The Eastern Southland Art Gallery is set in a historic library and really has a huge offering of art from all over the world. This New Zealand art gallery is pretty huge. We did not expect this in such a quiet corner of New Zealand!
After the art gallery, we head back to Dolamore Park which is where we have been camping for the last couple of days while in Gore. Dolamore Park has cheap powered sites for campervans, as well as a wealth of hikes in Gore and even mountain biking trails in Gore. We go check out one of the Dolamore Park walks that goes through the forest foothills of the Hokonui Hills. Dolarmore Park is well worth checking out for some walks in Gore.
So what do you think of the city of Gore? Would you visit the Eastern Art Gallery or check out Dolamore Park in Gore? LUK in the comments!
