Christchurch is the gateway to one of the most stunning regions in the world – the South Island of New Zealand.
Following the devastating 2011 Christchurch earthquakes, the city has been extensively rebuilt and is now a modern, vibrant city that is the envy of the rest of New Zealand. People who visit Christchurch don't appreciate the huge impact of earthquakes until they see all the new buildings and still vacant land, 15 years later.
