Hi, everyone!
How was your New Year's Holiday? Mine was pretty good:) Now the holidays are behind us and time to get back to work.
Today, I would like to share my trip to NZ, again.

Mona Vale in Christcurch
|
Christchurch has been damaged by the big earthquake of 22 February 2011. It left deep scars on the beautiful city. However, known as a "Garden City", Christchurch was filled with many flowers.

Firstly, we visited Mona Vale which is an historic property. The Victorian homestead is surrounded by 5.5 hectares of English-style landscaped gardens on the banks of the Avon River.
Love such a combination of flowers and grasses!

Rose Garden in Hagley Park
|
As Ruth recommended us, we visited Hagley Park, a large expansive park centrally located in Christchurch that covers an area of 407 acres!

Visited the Rose Garden there, roses were little bit beyond their peak. But we still could enjoy them!

Cafe in Hagley Park

They say, some of the largest, tallest and oldest trees in New Zealand can be found here.
Maybe, I could! :)
We had a great time strolling around the beautiful park, and headed to the antique shops!
In my next post I'll share photos of them:)
