Wellington
Wellington City (the coolest little capital)
Wellington is compact, cultured and full of character. Nestled between the harbour and the hills, the vibrant downtown area is ideal for explorations on foot. You’ll discover an amazing range of cafes, art galleries, theatres, attractions and a lively nightlife. Wellington is New Zealand’s capital city and the home to Parliament and the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa which tells the story of New Zealand’s history through bold and interactive exhibits.
National Geographic describes Wellington as “offbeat, unconventional and original, Wellington is a place where city meets nature and is incomparable to anywhere else on earth”… There are lots of things that make Wellington Cool-with-a-capital-C.
Here are some websites to help whet your appetite and make some plans for your visit:
