Nestled along the banks of the Arrow River, the Chinese miners’ huts in Arrowtown stand as a poignant reminder of New Zealand’s gold rush history. This fine art photograph captures the simple, hand-built shelters that tell the story of perseverance and hardship faced by early Chinese miners. A powerful piece celebrating heritage, cultural history, and the layered past of Central Otago.
