🇳🇿 Christchurch | More Than Just a Stopover! 🍂✨

🍽️ Riverside Market • Bluff oysters ($20+/dozen) – "Budget-friendly but Bessie’s reigns supreme." 🦪 • Dimitris Greek Food: Huge portions, "good but not life-changing." 🎨 Art Centre • 10-min riverside walk → Spot the 3D floating house illusion 📸 • Post-quake history exhibits + chic lifestyle shops (bought a vintage knife! 🔪) • Food trucks out back – "Someone try these for me!" 🌿 Botanic Gardens • Golden autumn glory – Ducks, geese & crunching leaves underfoot. "Zen mode: ON." 🦆🍁 ⛪ Cardboard Cathedral • Why ‘Cathedral’? Post-2011 quake, this eco-friendly paper-tube sanctuary became Christchurch’s spiritual heart. • Don’t miss: Stained glass + quake memorial. Best by car! 🚗 #ChristchurchUnlocked #NZAutumnVibes
