Christchurch is my favourite New Zealand city, perhaps because of my British heritage. An historic city, Christchurch is very attractive - and you could be forgiven for thinking you are in England.
We are going to New Zealand at the end of November. We are taking our two young children and would like to know of some child friendly New Zealand attractions on the North Island. Our children are 5 years and 18 months. So they have to be really child friendly. Just some web site links would be nice. Cheers. Yeah we are spending 4 nights in Rotorua. I can't wait.
I hope you and your family have an awesome time when you come to NZ My suggestions for Rotorua are.. When you first get here.. Go to the information center which is located on our main road "Fenton Street" to check out if anything is happening on the days that you are here. Parks Kuirau Park...Located in central Rotorua...Its free... Has a neat park for the kids to run around and foot pools to soak your sore feet then take a short stroll 2-3 minute walk to the geysers and mud pools. These are very small compaired to Te Puia but its all in one park area Also there is a food market there every saturday. The lake front.... Has a great park.... It also has a market every second Sunday food,stalls,clothing etc.. http://www.rotoruaNZ.com
