Christchurch, known as the Garden City, is the third largest city in New Zealand and the largest city in the South Island. It was built 150 years ago and is surrounded by well-planned gardens. Since most of the early immigrants were British, the historic buildings of the city have the characteristics of British Victorian era. The British also gave Christchurch a new definition of outside the UK, most like a British city. But the earthquake in 2011 made Christchurch a big blow. After years of construction, it has added elements of modernization and innovation to the damaged cultural heritage. The city is gradually showing new style. There is a small church next to lunch, which is half destroyed by the earthquake like most churches in Christchurch, but now the surrounding gardens and cemeteries have been repaired better, quiet and beautiful. The two major earthquakes have had a great impact on Christchurch. Earthquakes can be seen everywhere, and there is a hope next to the church, hoping that Christchurch will get better and better.
