Christchurch is the best place to have a vacation. To relax your eyes and see the treasure of nature its really the best decision to visit Christchurch. Head south along Colombo Street towards the hills (Cashmere end). When you get to the very end of the road, go straight over the roundabout and up the rather steep Dyers Pass Road. Keep following the road all the way until you get to the Sign of the Kiwi. This in itself is a beautiful drive and you may even fancy stopping for a coffee and slice of cake at the cafe here. |
