Lake Tekapo is one of the most picturesque places on Earth. The glacial lake is located in the heart of the Mackenzie Basin in the South Island of New Zealand and is surrounded by the Southern Alps. The turquoise-blue waters are crystal clear and the snow-capped peaks provide a stunning backdrop. The lake is a popular spot for fishing, hiking, and skiing, and is also home to the Tekapo Observatory. Visitors can enjoy a range of activities including boating, kayaking, and cycling, or simply relax and take in the stunning views.
