Aspen House is very proud of what a beautiful place New Zealand is. Seems like the rest of the world has a chance to vote on this too! We found an interesting new clip recently that is raising the awareness of some of the world’ more special natural sites. And guess what, one of them was in New Zealand!
The Milford Sound is one of the 25 spectacular natural landmarks in the final phase of a global poll to choose the seven wonders of the world.
Go to theNew 7 Wonders website link here and make a vote for NZ’s most amazing Fiord. People can vote on this site so spread the word and get your friends to vote. A panel of experts chose the finalists based on geographical balance, diversity and the importance to human life.
Otrher finalists are the Great Barrier Reef, the Amazon and Uluru.
Milford Sounds is in the south west of NZ’s South Island. Aspen House Hotel is your ideal base when you arrive in New Zealand and start your NZ trip.

History! Milford is named after Milford haven in Wales. It runs 15 kms inland from the Tasman Sea and is urrounded by sheer rock faces.Lush rain forests cling to these cliffs while seals, pengiuns and dolphins are often spotted in the waters.
The New 7 Wonders campaign isn’t alone in thinking Milford Sounds is special. Rudyard Kipling called it the 8th wonder of the world! It’s also been judged as the world’s top travel destination in an international survey. It is in a world heritage site. (By the way Barcelona has lots of these too!)
