利特爾頓是位於當地東南部的一個港口小鎮,屬基督城轄區,人口2900左右。小鎮北面的海港山將其與基督城分隔,於是在海港山,1867年修建了2.7公里的鐵路隧道、1964年修建了1.97公里的公路隧道將基督城與小鎮連接起來,目前鐵路隧道為全國較古老、公路隧道為全國較長的。其中公路隧道也是去這裏參觀、遊覽的主要方式。目前所説的小鎮主要指圍繞利特爾頓港的居住區,總體而言,由於這裏的港灣原是一個古老的火山口,所以小鎮一面臨海、一面環山,風景十分優美,居民從港口往山上延伸,建築式樣多、色彩豐富、層次明顯,配合著植被,觀感很好。
第三次的旅行,仍然有許多嚴重破壞的地方,但仍舊是一個美麗的地方。已經做了許多工作,但還需要做更多的工作。還不錯的一個地方。
Littleton suffered a lot in the earthquake, but the heroic people of Christchurch have overcome many difficulties and bravely faced efforts to rebuild. Today, Jianglittleton is showing a busy scene, wishing the people of Christchurch a brilliant future. It is said that the Chinese Xuelong scientific research vessel has repeatedly docked at the port for supplies.
雖然只是一個很小的海港城,但那種isolate的感覺超級棒!重點是重基督城出發時,「不要」走tunnel ,雖然走這裏比較快,但你會錯失很多的美景,繞道MT Pleasant可以看到Lyttelton Harbour,那種居高臨下的風景超級棒!
It's the port of Christchurch, but not Oakland. It's a mountain city. From Christchurch, you can take No. 28 and ferry to the other side.
Lyttelton is a port town on the east coast of South Island, about 12 kilometers away from Christchurch and belongs to a district of Christchurch. There is a 1.9 kilometre long railway between the town and Christchurch, which is connected by a highway tunnel. This tunnel is the longest highway tunnel and the oldest railway tunnel in New Zealand. The other side of the tunnel is a container terminal. You can view the whole harbour and even observe the operation of the wharf at close range.
