Our destination of this week is gloriously tempting.

 

The Capital of Cool. World’s southernmost capital city. “The coolest little capital of the world”, as named by Lonely Planet. World’s most remote capital city. These are the names of New Zealand’s capital city, Wellington.

 

A gorgeous cosmopolitan, located right between a harbour and rolling green hills, it is the second most-populous urban area of New Zealand. In 2012, it was ranked at 13 in the list of cities with quality living. Wellington is not only the geographical center of NZ but it is also the very political and cultural heartbeat of the country. It not only has all the political buildings of NZ but is an important venue of the country’s art, film and theater industry. Most of the must-visit buildings in New Zealand are located in the city. The best part, perhaps, is that it is one of the cheapest “safe and state-of-the-art” cities to live in. Wellington is on of the top choices for students looking to Study in New Zealand with Top Universities.

 

Architecturally, every architectural style developed in the past 150 years has its presence here. You will have the wooden cottages, the streamlined Art Deco structures, sky scrapers, the bicultural blends and colonial villas dotting the hillsides. Then you have sculptures! Iconic and kinetic, they are everywhere to bedazzle you.
