#6 of Best Things to Do in Christchurch
Squares
旅の径
The Cathedral Square is located in the heart of Christchurch, New Zealand's South Island. It is the historic center of Christchurch, once the main venue for public gatherings, and now it is the city's transportation center, the center of activities for tourists (especially pedestrians), and a must-check in place to visit Christchurch. The most vicissitudes. The Christchurch Cathedral (the square is named after it) was built in1864-1904, and two earthquakes occurred during the construction period. After its elegant shape and 63-meter-high Gothic minarets, it became a classic landmark of Christchurch. The 6.3 magnitude earthquake in February 2011 seriously damaged the construction of Christchurch. The steeple of the cathedral collapsed, half of the tower remained, and only the middle temple was completely preserved. The damaged building has not been repaired yet, surrounded by cold scaffolding. The most eye-catching. In the middle of the square, a memorial statue of John Robert Codley, the founder of Christchurch in Canterbury. The most literary. On the side of the square, there is a giant chess board, the red/black chess pieces are50-80 cm high, and each one looks very heavy and difficult to move (two masters are focusing on playing and playing chess, the author did not experience the weight of the chess, leaving a regret). The coolest. In 2001, to celebrate the millennium and the 150th anniversary of the establishment of Christchurch and Canterbury, the sculpture "Millennial Grail" was placed in the square. The 18-meter-high sculpture is a long, tapered shape, abstract shape, decorative image, outer circle hollow, outer wall silver gray, inner core blue. Between the cascading, the leaves of 8 native native plants such as the leaves of New Zealand national flower-silver foliage, twisted and stretched upward, symbolizing vitality and prosperity. The most convenient. The retro tram has a station on the side of the square, which becomes a beautiful scenery. 2.6 kilometers of operation lines and 17 retro trams of stops can easily reach the main landscape of the city.

The museum is the largest in the world (applied art, decorative art and design art). It has a large collection of jewelry, furniture, clothing, ceramics, locks, cameras, etc. It also has many things from different historical periods and different places in the world. This place is great, it is free, don’t miss it! No doubt it should be included in your travel itinerary, especially due to its proximity to several other tourist attractions and other museums.

It's a memorial to the dead, and if you're nearby, take a moment to visit the monument and walk across the bridge - hopefully all those who have sacrificed their lives in the conflict will somehow move you.

Victoria Square is one of the landmarks of Christchurch, smaller than the imagination of the coarse eyebrows, you can dry at a glance. There is a treasure fountain in the square (Bowker Fountain), which will be lighted at night, and it can also change color, which is very beautiful. Built in 1931, the fountain has a long history, funded by the real estate developer Baoka, so the fountain is also named after him.

A 5-minute trip can be ended very quickly browsed and took photos. It is an indicator landmark, can be used as a meeting place, do not need to be deliberately included in one of the must-visit attractions

This is an art space set up to commemorate the victims of the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. These 185 empty chairs represent 185 victims. Looking at the empty chairs, especially the baby chairs and wheelchairs, the heart is full of regret and reluctance. Perhaps we shouldn't view this unfortunate historical event from a perspective of visitation, but if we can understand a little positive outlook on life from this intermediate, perhaps this memorial landmark is the meaning. May the victims enjoy eternal joy in heaven, and hope that family and friends will come out of mourning as soon as possible.

We decided to take the air cable car on the day we arrived in Christchurch. It was convenient to drive from the city. It was a bit cloudy but it was pleasant to take the cable car and we loved looking around the shops at the top. We still have to go to the time tunnel, which is beautiful and educational.

The architecture of Christchurch Visitor Information Center is black and white, which is very British. No wonder Christchurch is called the most British city outside the UK. Reconstruction after the earthquake is so difficult!

"New Regent Street" is a famous open-air shopping center in Christchurch. There are some specialty shops and restaurants, but all the shops have closed, and only the restaurants are still open. The streets are not long, but the two sides are European-style buildings, very distinctive. "New Regent Street" was completed in the 1920s and is arguably the oldest shopping center in Christchurch. The shops sell mostly local handicrafts, which are clearly based on foreign tourists as the main source of customers.
