Garden City Christchurch

Christchurch is a beautiful city full of British style. It is considered the most British place outside the UK. It is said that even the name Christchurch is closely related to Christ Church at Oxford University. In my mind, Christchurch is like a quiet, dignified, gentle, beautiful, and elegant lady. It not only has beautiful natural landscapes, but also has rich history and humanity and profound cultural heritage. It is the culture and art of the South Island of New Zealand. and education centers. ※ The Arts Center is one of the popular attractions on the Tram City Tour. It was originally the campus of the University of Canterbury (UC), built in 1877. After UC moved in 1975, it was retained as an art center and is one of the oldest art centers in New Zealand. In the 2011 Christchurch earthquake, the Arts Center building was severely damaged and reopened in 2017 after repairs. The unique Gothic architecture of the Art Center is itself a very beautiful work of art and is the city's business card that distinguishes Christchurch from other places in New Zealand. If you pay a little attention, you can find an "invisible house" suspended in the air on the roof of the building. It is said to be the work of New Zealand sculptor Neil Dawson and is called Echo. As an important multi-functional cultural institution in Christchurch, the Arts Center is renowned for promoting and displaying various art forms, regularly hosting a variety of art exhibitions, including painting, sculpture, photography and multimedia art. It is also a venue for music, dance and drama performances, with regular concerts, dance performances and drama repertoire. There are more than 30 art studios and handicraft workshops in the center, and there is also a cafe offering delicious and fragrant coffee drinks. You can also find cheap and high-quality handicrafts at the weekend market held here.
