Wellington is the capital of New Zealand (and not the larger neighbor to the north, Auckland). The Travelers agreed, the city in the Pacific region are not to be missed. With the combination of cosmopolitan and relaxed atmosphere, easy to like Wellington. Here are some tips for your trip to get there.
The tram ride to the Royal Botanic Gardens
Streetcars, or cable car, is one of the city's heritage is still alive because the support of the tourism industry. Thus, only the tourists who climb it, but I like to hear the clink and clank of the tram all the way to the summit at the Royal Botanic Gardens. From up there, you can see the charming scenery Wellington. Royal Botanic Gardens are also widespread, there are some lovely old buildings in it, and they really wholeheartedly arrange flowers in the garden.
New Zealand had a lot of natural beauty, Milford Sound is one of the most famous - on Unearthing Asia.
Enjoying Coffee in Kelburn
In the western part of the Royal Botanic Gardens, there Kelburn Village, the region's most 'European' in Wellington. Its main street is full of cozy cafes, shops character, antiques dealer, and unique bakery. This is the best place to linger over coffee or enjoy a meal. Make sure you also explore the Glen (Royal Gardens and Kelburn liaison) to see the old Pohutakawa trees near the church of Saint Michael.
Dunedin in New Zealand is another city that strong European flavor, especially Scotland - on Unearthing Asia.
Back to the Past at the Karori Sanctuary Trust
You will not find it still in Wellington when entering the site http://www.sanctuary.org.nz/ Karori Sanctuary. Karori Sanctuary Foundation, in the page Web site, stating that, "(they) Returns sepojok seautentik New Zealand might be like when there is no man." Many argue they already do the job properly! Area is closed, there is a major island in the middle; rare plants and animals were protected in it. Even if you do a tour group there, the place still feels very peaceful country with a thick atmosphere, despite being in the city.
Entertainment at Te Papa
Te Papa Wellington is a national museum with exhibits a very broad spectrum, so the hard-called one by one. On any given day, you can learn about the geological forces that shape the island, or you can learn the tradition of first-language population of New Zealand, exploring thrift stores, and about art. If you are traveling with children, then you should stop by here.
Children will also love exploring the Thermal Wonderland Wai-o-Tapu in Rotoroa - on Unearthing Asia.
Ferry ride to Matiu-Somes Island
A former island prison camp and quarantine zones may not be a choice of attractions, but Matiu-Somes worth a visit in Wellington Harbour. You can ride the ferry from Queen's Wharf, but make sure the crew, to ask them to stop there. The island is the perfect place to stroll and browse, but you must know exactly what time the ferry to come pick up - you definitely do not want to spend the night in this island, right?
Looking at the Other Place Panorama
I had mentioned about the view from Kelburn or tram, but there are few other places can be visited if you have time remaining:
Mount Victoria - may point panorama is quite famous, offering 360-degree perspective. About an hour walk from town, but you can also ride the bus.
Wrights Hill - you can see the beautiful scenery as well as exploring the tunnels of World War II. Check out their site page to find out the days / hours of work, because this place is not open at all times.
Massey Memorial - This unique shaped monument is a sight in itself, but the landscape at Days Bay is also quite beautiful.
Brooklyn Windmill - I love the view from up here. But, for you know, windmills in New Zealand is not the same as in the Netherlands, this is a wind turbine.
