Established 150 years ago with a  population of over 320,000 Christchurch is a vibrant city with exciting festivals, theatre, modern art galleries, great shopping & many attractions. 

The square in the centre of the city contains the Christchurch Cathedral which you can climb for a view of the city.

Other grey-stone nineteenth century buildings, tree-lined avenues & extensive leafy parks give the city an elegant & rather English atmosphere.
