About Christchurch (Lyttelton)
Christchurch is a city on the east coast of New Zealand's South Island, in the Canterbury Region, bigger than any other city on that island. The Avon River runs through its centre beside a large park, and the city's English look earned it the nickname Garden City. Its Maori heritage is long too, and the Maori name for the city is Ōtautahi.
