Shirley Ecolodge Hostel is located in the South Island's largest city, and main international gateway in New Zealand. Christchurch is a vibrant city with restaurants, cafés, bars, golf courses, exciting festivals, theatre, modern art galleries, great shopping, award-winning attractions and a host of activities. With the centrally located 161ha Hagley Park and Botanic Gardens, Victoria park, leafy avenues, and spectacular gardens like Mona Vale on the banks of the Avon River, Christchurch certainly lives up to its internationally recognised title of "The Garden City". Within 1.5 hours drive of Christchurch is the old French settlement of Akaroa, the mountains of Arthurs Pass, vineyards of Waipara and the thermal springs of Hamner Springs.
Walking around the city you can find all sorts of interesting architecture, as well as a fully restored Victorian electric tram, which takes you pass many of the sights and is well worth the time.
