Canterbury
Canterbury is a magnificent region of epic landscapes, with mountains, lakes, rivers and plains, not to mention the city of Christchurch. A must see destination for many is the Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park. If you want to view New Zealand’s longest glacier, you can view the Haupapa/Tasman Glacier in the park too. And for those who like a challenging walk, Arthur’s Pass National Park is the place to be. Don’t worry though if you prefer to be in a city as the Garden City of Christchurch has much to offer, with restaurants and bars in the Salt District, plus the Christchurch Art Gallery, and a lot, lot more.
