Wellington City is New Zealand’s capital, and the region is also known as our arts and culture capital.
Wellington
'Windy Wellington', so named due to the cool southerlies that whip in off Cook Strait, is New Zealand's capital.
Set on the edge of a stunning harbour and surrounded by steep hills, it is arguably the most sophisticated city we have to offer. Many of the finest bars and restaurants have a certain edge that's missing elsewhere; there's a distinct arts culture; and more women dress head-to-toe in black.
Wellington is a city with real soul, one where people really get behind events (much like in Melbourne).
Properties in traditionally affluent suburbs such as Khandallah and Thorndon are always in high demand, as are those with views over the harbour, including Oriental Bay and Roseneath.
