Littleton was not small in the earthquake, but the heroic Christchurch people overcome many difficulties and bravely face the efforts to rebuild, today Jiang Littleton presents a busy scene, wishing the Christchurch people another brilliant. It is said that the Chinese Xuelong scientific examination ship has docked at the port many times to supply supplies.
Although it is just a small Harbour City, the feeling of isolation is superb! The focus is on the departure of Christchurch, "Don't" walk the tunnel, although it is faster to walk here, but you will miss a lot of beautiful scenery, detour MT Pleasant can see Lyttelton Harbour, that kind of condescending scenery is superb!
It is the port of Christchurch, but it is not comparable to Auckland. It is a mountain city. From Christchurch you can take the 28th road, there is a ferry to the other side.
