There are NO "
WET MARKETS" in Christchurch, it is not the same as in Singapore. If you mean the Sunday Markets in Riccarton. You decide yourself whether it is worth visiting.
This is what it looks like, their operating hours and what they sell:
The Riccarton Rotary Sunday Market is the biggest market of its kind in New Zealand - and is a great place to shop! Each week over 300 vendors are there selling a wide variety of goods, from fresh fruits and vegetables to second hand goods, furniture, clothing, art, plants and trees, food and beverages you name it - the market will have it. Join in the fun and fellowship with upwards of 10,000 others whom make their shopping fun at the market. Relax in our new outdoors area and have your lunch with friends and family while listening to music from some local artist. Come and visit us - there's is plenty of parking and we are just 15 minutes drive from the central city.
