Christchurch is situated in the South Island. Christchurch is the heart of Canterbury and is widely known as the Garden City. The city was founded by Church of England settlers in 1850, arriving on the ‘first four ships’. The heritage of Christchurch can be seen in the neo-Gothic stone architecture, the parks and street names of the central city.

While built on the primary production from the extensive Canterbury Plains, Christchurch is now a much diversified economy. Close to the sea and bordered by the Southern Alps the plains are sliced by a number of pristine rivers.
