Christchurch lies on the Canterbury Plains with views of the Southern Alps mountain range. The city has hill suburbs nestled in what are called the 'Port Hills'. Christchurch is well known for its many parks and gardens, including Hagley Park and the Botanic Gardens.
This is the Avon River which runs through inner city Christchurch. I’m standing on the Bridge of Remembrance and it was raining just a little bit. The street you see is called ‘the strip’ and there are lots of nice places to eat there and have drinkies at night.
