Wellington

Tucked along Wellington Harbour at the southern end of New Zealand’s North Island, Wellington is a place whose character is shaped by the frequent winds of Cook Strait. The national capital combines a compact central area with steep, closely settled hills and a working waterfront. Te Papa Tongarewa, New Zealand’s national museum, stands on the harbour’s edge, while the Beehive and the neighbouring Parliament Buildings mark the political heart of the country. The historic Wellington Cable Car has linked Lambton Quay with Kelburn since 1902. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Wellington and its harbour.
