Christchurch holidaysin South Island
This revitalised city, which is the third largest in New Zealand, welcomes with wide open spaces, modern architecture and heritage buildings, not to mention a diverse natural playground.Christchurch has a long hitlist of attractions within the evolving city limits and surrounds, and to see its best sights, we recommend hopping on a tram. Beautifully restored heritage tramcars trundle through the city allowing you to access numerous points of interest from 18 stops.Another great way to see the city is from up high, namely the Christchurch Gondola, which whisks you to the summit station where your reward is spectacular panoramic views of the city, Lyttleton Harbour, the Pacific Ocean and beyond.
