Photo: Christchurch City View Port Hills New Zealand

The view of the city of Christchurch on the South Island of New Zealand from Summit Road on the Port Hills.

As you drive Summit Road through the Port Hills on the South Island of New Zealand, there are magnificent lookouts where you get an incredible view of the city of Christchurch. This city stretches for miles across the New Zealand landscape and from the Port Hills you can see buildings all the way to the edge of the horizon.

Christchurch is a city that was first inhabited about a thousand years ago and was officially established in 1856, making it the oldest city in New Zealand. From what was once a small village, the city of Christchurch has grown to be the largest city on the South Island with a population of around 400,000.

Summit Road winds around the top of the Port Hills and the city of Christchurch is one of the stunning views with others being Lyttelton, Sumner and Pegasus Bay. The road is fairly narrow and many pathways make the Port Hills a great place to cycle or hike to catch a view of these destinations in New Zealand. ... continue below the picture...
