Christchurch is often described as the most English of New Zealand's cities. But for all its self-consciously inherited charm, Christchurch should not be dismissed as simply a facsimile of somewhere else.
This is also a thoroughly modern New Zealand city, as exemplified by the Kiwi art that has pride of place in the city's newish gallery, the wildlife reserves teeming with native animals, and a multitude of great cafes, restaurants and bars.

Suggested Itineraries in Christchurch
The most popular activities around Christchurch are rather gentler than the high-powered pursuits of places such as Wanaka and Queenstown.
Punting down the Avon River is a good example, as are the inner-city walks and the trails further south at Lyttelton Harbour, and the swimming off New Brighton and Sumner beaches. But there are a few up-tempo activities too, such as skiing, sky diving and jetboating the Waimakariri River.
