Christchurch

|
As the name suggest there is a very English feel to
Christchurch. Known as ‘the garden city’, the South
Island’s largest conurbation is located on the banks of
the Avon River. It is a colorful, cosmopolitan city with
award-winning gardens, exciting festivals, theatres,
modern art galleries, and great shopping. Grey stoned
19th century buildings in tree-lined avenues along side
extensive leafy parks give the city an elegant
atmosphere.
The city prides itself on its outstanding
cultural identity and the reputation it has for 'the
best cultural precinct' in the southern hemisphere. |
