Christchurch New Zealand


Christchurch New Zealand
Christchurch is the biggest city of the South Island, and the second largest city in New Zealand. The town remains famous for its cathedral, beautiful gardens and parks, museums, restaurants and night life. Cultural and adventure activities in and around Christchurch are numerous. Christchurch offers a unique blend of historical charm and vibrant city life. The international airport in Christchurch makes it a great entry point or base to explore the rest of the Canterbury region and South Island. Following the earthquake of 22 February 2011, our thoughts are with the people of Christchurch, Canterbury and New Zealand and we believe in the continuity of New Zealand to offer its inhabitants and tourists a palette of natural, multiple, varied and unique resources.
