If you're intrigued by animals and wildlife, put the Orana Wildlife Park on your itinerary. If you're short on time, be sure to grab a map so you don't miss any of the zoo highlights.

Whether you're a wine enthusiast or just enjoy the occasional glass, look into arranging a trip to the True and Daring Winery or the Omarino Wine Park. There's nothing better than opening a bottle of the latest vintage to celebrate time off. Cheers!

Spend a morning enjoying the plant species at the Christchurch Botanic Gardens and the Frensham Gardens.

When it's time for a break, grab a bite to eat and find a shady nook at one of the leafy urban parks, such as Mona Vale and Cave Rock. There's also plenty of room to lounge about in the grass at Hagley Park and Quail Island.

With stacks of visitor information on hand, Christchurch I-SITE is a good place to find out what's going on in Christchurch.
