It takes 45 minutes to drive to Christchurch Airport, or Christchurch City. Christchurch has many attractions. Right in the centre is the 200 acre Hagley Park, with renowned botanic gardens, a historic legacy appreciated by locals and visitors alike. It is situated on the River Avon, a quiet shallow stream where ducklings bob along between the rowing boats and punts available for hire . Nearby is the Arts Centre, an area of cafes, craft shops and studios. At weekends there is an open-air craft market with street entertainers, popular with all the family.
Other attractions include the Antarctic Centre, an interactive tribute to that unique continent, and Ferrymead, where you can see what life used to be like in the days of the Early Settlers.
