The only bit of virgin native bush left in Christchurch, Riccarton bush is a definite must-visit for travellers. Saved and closed off by the Deans family in the 1800s, this little piece of native sanctuary will help you imagine Christchurch before colonisation. Hear the birds warble, see the native plants, and enjoy the tranquility.

Riccarton House is a beautiful Historic Home that has been converted in to a cafe/restaurant, and occasionally has markets on Sunday mornings. There is a beautiful native bush area which you can walk through and feel far away from the city :)

One of the famous park in Christchurch, it's only about 20 mins walking distance from the Sunny house.
