  • Wellington - Welcome to the southernmost capital city in the entire world. Trust us it’s well worth the trip! Check out the top spots in the city, here.
    When ready, browse vacation packages to Wellington: www.expedia.com/Wellington.d6...
    New Zealand is known as the “Land of the Long White Cloud” to its native Maori people, and #Wellington is its cultural, political, and culinary capital. This compact city is trendy, creative, and begging to be explored.
    A Wellington #vacation is diverse; fresh ocean winds blow off the Cook Strait and invite you to kayak in the harbor or explore the beach. The city center is replete with street art and museums and imbued with creativity. Take a walking #tour of the area and observe the eclectic architecture, including the Parliament building and its beehive-shaped executive wing.
    Ride a historic Wellington cable car from Lambton Quay to the Botanic Garden. For a look at the history of this South Pacific capital, go to Te Papa National Museum, which outlines the country’s cultural heritage.
    For now, we hope you enjoy watching this #travel #guide as much as we enjoyed making it.

    Seriously one of the coolest cities ever. Spent a semester in New Zealand, based in Auckland. Wellington beats Auckland in my book. Did a solo trip to Wellington for 3 nights. Was the best part of my 5 months. A great place to just find your self in, relax, eat good food and chat it up with cool folks. My favorite place was the City Gallery. I bought a tote bag there and proudly use it to remember the good times in Wellington. A truly must visit gem. -Seattle, WA native

Also every single cafe walked into served one of the best coffees I've ever had in my life and breakfast / food were just amazing everywhere as well.. Wellington people are super friendly too. If I ever get a chance to live in New Zealand, it's definitely gonna be Wellington..
