New Zealand’s third largest city, Christchurch has bounced back since the earthquakes of 2011 as an exciting travel destination with plenty of things to do. Addington is one of the funkiest suburbs on offer, with live music venues and cool cafes. Cashel Mall is becoming a prime place to grab some bargains thanks to the Re:START project helping restore a range of shops in the city.

Christchurch Airport was New Zealand’s first international airport and is now the second busiest in the country. There are heaps of things to do while you wait for your flight. Grab a coffee or some food, enjoy some duty-free shopping, kill some time in a video game arcade or cross the road to the International Antarctic Centre. At this cool-as-ice location, you can wander Antarctica without leaving New Zealand, meet penguins and take a simulated Antarctic cruise with cool 4D special effects.

A drive away from the airport is the Christchurch Botanic Gardens, where you can see the sights from a caterpillar shuttle that runs on electricity (it’s as cool as it sounds!). This place contains more than 250 varieties of roses and an archery garden. Willowbank Wildlife Reserve is another awesome spot, where you can explore the unique NZ plant life and meet the local kiwi bird.
