To travel to Christchurch, you should visit the Canterbury Museum. The appearance and connotation are worth seeing. Appearance. The museum in the city center, next to the botanical garden. The gray-bottomed white-framed buildings are both elegant and dazzling. In front of the museum is a statue of William Ralston, a distinguished politician and leader in Canterbury. The figure is lifelike. Connotation. Compared with China, the museum is medium-sized. But the rich and varied exhibits fully showcase New Zealand's unique Maori culture and history, showcase New Zealand's natural and colonial development, showcase human exploration and cognition of Antarctica, and can learn more about New Zealand's historical culture.

The Museum of Canterbury is the largest museum in Canterbury, and it shows the history and natural resources of the city in all aspects. There are many fossils of paleontology and the life scene of the Aboriginal people, which is worth visiting.

The Canterbury Museum in Christchurch, New Zealand, opened in 1870 and features a collection of outstanding New Zealand collections. Highlights include the Maori Art Gallery, Antarctic Exhibition Hall and more. The exhibits include small canoees used by people who suffered shipwrecks on Disappointed Island in 1907, a wide variety of bird specimens from the Pacific Ocean and beyond, and sculpturally beautiful emperor penguins. There are also exploration centers that children will love and colorful "Ferred and Mertel's abalone shell cabin" crafts, ingenious artwork is worth stopping to watch. This museum has changed my traditional understanding of the museum, that is, solemn and dark, but in fact, the Canterbury Museum pays more attention to strangeness, fun and experience, and many parents take their children to study and play in the museum, which is a paradise.

It is now under construction until 2027 to reopen.

The museum is not very big but worth a visit and it is beautiful

It was closed for a while after the earthquake and is now reopened to the public. Just next to the Botanical Garden Forest Park. So you can visit together. No entrance tickets, it is free, very rare. Because there are indeed many places worth seeing and learning in the museum. It is recommended to visit the botanical park in the morning, it is hot in the afternoon, and then visit the museum. Very suitable for parent-child travel.

The shell house in the Canterbury Museum made me feel like walking into the Little Mermaid bedroom~ It was too beautiful and fairy tale. Fortunately, I caught up with the period of no tickets. ～ It is said that Christchurch is the most similar place to the UK except for the UK. It seems that it is still worthwhile.

The Canterbury Museum is worth visiting. The museum is free, but before entering the museum, it is best to invest a little money in the fundraising box to show the Maori culture, New Zealand animals, Antarctic exploration, etc. When we go, there is a display of New Zealand Airlines.
