The surrounding region offers adventure sports galore, and lofty peaks provide a snowy backdrop. Though lush with parks and gardens, Christchurch is the country's third-largest urban area. A free shuttle bus provides service into the city, and Central City is easily explored on foot. Unmissable sights include the Arts Centre Market, Christchurch Cathedral, the Botanic Gardens, the International Antarctic Centre and kiwis at Willowbank Wildlife Reserve. « less
