The Botanic Gardens, a lush sanctuary of flora, are a testament to the city's nickname, with extensive collections of plants and flowers that create a serene environment for leisurely strolls or picnics.
The city's resilience and creativity are on full display in the innovative urban spaces that have emerged following the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes. The Cardboard Cathedral, designed by architect Shigeru Ban, is an iconic symbol of this rebirth, showcasing both ingenuity and beauty. The Re:START Mall, a shopping area made from shipping containers, adds a colorful and eclectic vibe to the retail experience.
