小杨远方行

Christchurch can be called the most beautiful city in the South Island of New Zealand, and it is known as the Garden City. I think it is very suitable for citywalks. You can basically walk to all the attractions here, and you can fully experience the city&#39;s style.
This time, Christchurch&#39;s favorite attraction - Christchurch Botanic Gardens 🏕️

At first, an oak tree was planted to commemorate the marriage of Queen Victoria&#39;s eldest son. Now the entire green area occupies almost 1/4 of the left half of the city center of Christchurch (about 30 hectares). Next door is Hagley Park, and I deeply feel the &quot;waste&quot; of New Village with a large land and few people. Different seasons have different beauties. In spring, you can check in at the cherry blossom avenue in Hagley Park. Early summer to early autumn is a good season for viewing roses and hydrangeas, and late autumn is accompanied by red maples.

The main attractions in the park include:
🌹Rose Garden: This is the first time in my life that I know there are so many different varieties of roses. The colorful roses are the most suitable to describe the beautiful scenery in front of me.

🚣Rafting on the Avon River: You can choose to kayak yourself or have a boatman row a boat. Friends who don&rsquo;t want to take a boat can find a bench along the Avon River in the botanical garden and wave to friends on the boat. If you are lucky, you will see a mother duck bringing a group of ducklings ashore to play.

☕️Visitor Center: A white building located in the central area of ​​the park. You can visit the ILEX Buy coffee or food at the Cafe. Friends who choose to eat outside, please protect your food at all times. The birds around are watching closely. I witnessed with my own eyes that the tourist next door left her seat for less than 10 seconds, and a big bird took away her entire burger. Even I, who was sitting in the seat, was robbed of my beloved hash browns without paying attention.

🌸Central Lawn: A good place to watch hydrangeas in summer

🌊Victoria Lake: The largest lake in Hagley Park. On sunny days, the sun shines on the calm lake surface, which is so beautiful that it makes people intoxicated

⛲️Peacock Fountain: A small fountain. The Art Center (invisible house) is across the street from the fountain to the Botanical Gardens.

Wind and beautiful day. I like to take a walk to the botanical garden and breathe the fresh air. Peacock sculpture or other countries give it? The shape is very retro and elegant, and New Zealand is a flower city. Your climate and warm sea breeze make the flowers here colorful.

Punting On The Avon (Antigua Boat Sheds)

Boat tour

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing punting on the Avon River in Christchurch, and it was an absolutely delightful way to explore the city. The journey itself was serene and picturesque, offering a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.Our guide, dressed in traditional Edwardian attire, expertly navigated the flat-bottomed boat with a long pole, allowing us to relax and take in the tranquil surroundings. We drifted past lush greenery, charming bridges, and historic architecture, all of which created a postcard-perfect backdrop. The gentle pace of the punting made it easy to fully appreciate the beauty of the Christchurch Botanic Gardens and the calm waters of the river.The entire experience was wonderfully calming, yet never dull. Our guide shared interesting tidbits about the area&rsquo;s history and natural features, making the trip both relaxing and educational. It&rsquo;s the kind of activity that feels timeless&mdash;no rush, no stress, just the simple pleasure of gliding through a scenic waterway.Overall, I&rsquo;d highly recommend punting on the Avon to anyone visiting Christchurch. It&rsquo;s a unique and charming way to see the city, and it&rsquo;s perfect for solo travelers, couples, and families alike. I came away feeling refreshed, with a newfound appreciation for Christchurch&rsquo;s natural beauty and historic charm.

It turns out that the scenery is not as good as the online ones, and the scenery on the way to New Zealand is actually not worse than this. In short, it&#39;s okay. It was quite quiet when I went out. When I returned, I came up with a Chinese tour group. It was noisy for a long time, so that the train experience was discounted.
