I mean, it's not THAT selective of locations. I'm a NZ'er and spent a few years travelling the country in a motorhome so have been to most of these places and a lot of them are really common spots to visit. Looks like they spent most their time in the South Island though, which is a pretty spread-out region and a huge section of the upper South Island is a national park (hence being very scenic and not residential). The North Island is where most of our population lives but definitely has scenic spots (Cape Reinga, Cathedral Cove/Coromandel, Mount Maunganui). If you ever plan a visit here, ask the locals first for the best places to visit!

It’s true they are carefully selected beautiful images as there are too many beautiful views to choose from. As someone living in NZ I can honestly say it is a beautiful country and you don’t have to venture far for for an amazing photo op. I did have to laugh while reading the post though as it makes it look like their are no people here. I can assure you we do have cities and towns and are not isolated as some overseas people seem to believe 😀
