Wellington
Wellington offers a blend of culture, heritage, fine food, and lively arts and entertainment.
Surrounded by hills and a rugged coastline, the city boasts a stunning harbour. Wellington’s charm is that it serves up a vibrant inner city experience with a slice of New Zealand scenery. And because of its compact nature, you can sample it all: boutiques, art galleries, trendy cafés and restaurants. Right on its doorstep is a network of walking and biking trails with beautiful wineries and vineyards just a few hours away.
Wellington offers an array of theatre, music, dance, fine arts and galleries and museums. It is also home to one of the nation’s key attractions, the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa.
Wellington is also known for its film tourism. It is the heart of New Zealand’s film industry and main filming and production centres for films such as the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, Avatar, Tin Tin and District 9.
The city promotes itself as “Absolutely Positively Wellington”. Its motto “Suprema a situ” claims site supremacy, with some justification. Wellington was named as the fourth best city in the world to visit in 2011 by “Lonely Planet Best in Travel 2011″ referring to the New Zealand capital as the “coolest little capital in the world”.
