Christchurch is a city with a rich and varied heritage. Despite the devastating earthquakes of 2010 and 2011, many of its historic buildings and sites have survived or been restored. You can explore them on this walking guide and learn about their history and significance.

Some of the heritage buildings in this guide are fully repaired and open to the public. Others are still under repair or awaiting decisions about their future. These are marked as earthquake damaged in this booklet. Please respect the security fences and safety measures around them.

This walk will take you to places that reflect Christchurch's Māori and European cultural heritage. You'll see how the city has evolved over time and how it preserves its past. You'll also find plenty of opportunities to shop and dine along the way.

Join us on this tour and enjoy the beauty and history of Christchurch's heritage sites.
