The once splendid church was destroyed by the earthquake. Now enclosed with iron fences, you can only look outside. I went there twice, and I didn't see anyone repairing it. Maybe I can only see the ruins in the future. There is a square next to it. There are more tourists.

    How small is human beings in the face of natural disasters. Such a beautiful Christchurch cathedral is not in the face of the earthquake. The crystallization of human art can only be felt from the ruins!

    Christchurch Cathedral is a free place to visit, but there are donations boxes, the tour guide will recommend everyone to donate, the cathedral is well preserved, the history is very long, and the huge art sculptures are very much.

    The church that was damaged by the earthquake felt that it would take a long time to be fully repaired. The top of the church was full of nests and became a paradise for birds. The square is very empty. When we went, we rarely saw tourists come to visit. There were two small vendors selling souvenirs. There was no source of customers, and it was not like a tourist attraction at all.

    The original Gothic cathedral was destroyed in the earthquake, and Japanese designers temporarily built this unique "cardboard cathedral" on the site. The unique A-shaped shape is made entirely of cardboard rolls and supported by containers. The inlaid stained glass is extremely dazzling and looks more candy-like. The polycarbonate roof helps to protect these structures. Perhaps, people after the disaster are in need of candy-like comfort, perhaps, this simple "nature" cathedral, a better interpretation of the relationship between human beings and nature.... After the cathedral, there are a variety of white seats, which are left to those who have gone to heaven...

    The Cathedral of Christchurch, which was damaged in 2011 and has not been repaired up to now, is a tourist attraction with an average of 200,000 people a year. It has not been repaired so far. It is also to let you remember this day. It is really a "swaying" country.

    The main material of the cardboard church is made of cardboard, but the structure design is novel and not inferior to the steel bar, so the safety is absolutely guaranteed. It's a temporary building in itself, but because of its unique design, it's now a famous scenic spot.

    The Cathedral of Christchurch is located in the center of the city. It is one of the main symbols and important buildings of Christchurch. The Gothic style is full of elegance and charm. The 63-meter tall spire is the most important landmark and spiritual symbol of Christchurch. Visitors can walk into the observation platform on the tower. The top of the tower can overlook the whole garden city and enjoy a panoramic view. In addition, the spire imitates St. Paul's religion in Britain. Hall, equipped with 12 bells, can play different melodies...

    If not damaged, this cathedral is absolutely the perfect architectural feature of British style. Christchurch Cathedral, after the earthquake of 7.1 on September 4, 2010, and the earthquake of 6.3 on February 22, 2011, was unfortunately damaged and the tower fell. Because of the age, it could not be restored with modern materials, so it became such a wreckage. Now people can no longer get close to the cathedral, has been surrounded, so can only look far away.
