Christchurch

Christchurch is the largest city on the South Island and second largest city by urban area in New Zealand. Although some argue it is the only real city on the entire South Island. Originally settled by Maori tribes around 1250 AD this area of the South Island has always had some sort of occupation since then.

I visited this place at a very sad time few days after the earthquake so some facilities were not working like toilettes and showers upstairs, but the staff made a beautiful job by allowing us to have these facilities working downstairs. They also arranged for fixing dinner for the guests. ... more
