Wellington Zoo

posted by lrandolph on 12 August 2010 at 15:06

The Wellington zoo is really pleasant. There's a real emphasis on attending to the welfare and happiness of the animals and all the animals from the kiwis to the zebras to the chimps seemed content and cared for with enough room to run around freely.

Zealadia: Kaori Sanctuary

posted by nwilson on 12 August 2010 at 15:02

The Kaori Sanctuary is a beautiful area of fenced in conserved woodland. Its incredible how peaceful and well maintained given how close to the city centre it is. There are some little cafes and diners within the walls of the sanctuary too.

Botanical Gardens

The Botanical Gardens are really beautiful and well maintained. Make sure you get the cable car up and walk back down into town, the other way round is exhausting. The highlights were the rose garden and the begonia house- both personal favourites- which were very well maintained.

Te Papa National Museum

posted by fbaird on 12 August 2010 at 14:51

This is a really informative museum. Its great to see such a good display of Maori art as well as the 'Awesome Forces' section which demonstrates how natural disasters occur. There is also a simulation of an earthquake shaking a house which is very well done.
