Avon River Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
There are seats on the bank of the river section, you can sit down and rest for a while when you are tired from walking. Take an English-style gondola to visit the scenery on both sides of the Avon River. If you have enough time, you might as well take a British-style gondola (Punting) to go boating on the Avon River, swaying slowly on the calm river, and enjoy the pleasant time. At the same time, you can enjoy the charming scenery along the way, which is very romantic. The boarding point is Antigua Boat Sheds, and during the 30-minute journey, the boatman will tell you about the history or anecdotes of the coastal scenery. Blankets, umbrellas and even a thermos are provided on board, so you can go rafting even in the cold winter months. You can also rent rubber boats and kayaks to explore the Avon River on your own.

Christmas City Mother River, almost all attractions can see the Avon River, remembering bridges, botanical gardens, Hagley Park, Mona vale Manor...the riverside is lush with trees, trees, and many resting benches and stone steps, you can take a cruise or row.
It’s a mother river of Christchurch. The Christchurch is considered as a garden city in New Zealand.

A beautiful river. There are all kinds of fafafa in the park. There are all kinds of roses in the rose garden. There are ponds covered with lotus leaves in the small park. It's a good place to take pictures.
The Avon River in Christchurch is clear and pleasant. The ducks are at ease. Riding on the elevated boat on the beautiful Avon River is a wonderful journey that we must not miss here!
