'''Christchurch''' is the biggest city on [[New Zealand]]'s South Island with 350 000 inhabitants. It is not huge though and some part can easily be walked. You can even try hitchhiking while staying on a main axe with enough space for the cars to stop if you wish to get out of the city. In this case you should consider having a board!
<!> Important note <!>
After the 2011 Christchurch earthquakes, the bus network has been completely redesigned, and the bus names changed: watch out for any bus information prior to 2011.
If you're heading '''South''' its best to do it from the southern end of Hornby just before the 50km/hr zone ends (just past the shopping malls).
Post-eq2011 earthquake: From the city centre, take the Yellow (Y) bus line until the end. You will get dropped off at a mall called The Hub. Cross the mall, then cross the big road and you're ready to go !
The place is pretty good, but as in any big city you try to get out of, this may take some time (usually not more than 20-30 minutes).
You can make use of the bus lane on the left and of the traffic lights.
