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.
