Has a night market and is terrific for great food (both affordable and up-market), good shopping, and within easy walking distance of the waterfront and Courtenay Place. Also check out the iconic 'Bucket Fountain'. There were some stunning things designed in the sixties and seventies - sadly this fountain wasn't one of them. A great place to meet, however. Hence the saying 'Meet me at the Bucket Fountain, dude'.

Check out Lambton Quay and it's surrounding streets if you're after a wardrobe refresh, and want to stop for some good coffee between bursts of retail therapy.

Arts & Culture

Fantastic way to take in some of New Zealand's cultural life, and wonderful travelling exhibitions. Great rainy day option, if you have kids that need a fascinating place to spend the day. I find it really impressive every time I visit. Te Papa rocks.

Entertainment & Activities

Boutique movie theatre, just across from Havana bar and restaurant. Great mixture of art house and mainstream movies. Civilised way of spending an evening or afternoon, and you can grab a coffee or drink as well.

Central place to gather for an evening in town, or on a sunny morning or afternoon. Home of markets, theatres, Te Papa museum, bars, art installations (check out the Lux festival if you're there at the right time of year) and music. Check an events calendar and you'll find there's always something going on there.

Do bits of this, or the whole thing (if you have a day to spare). Great views all around Wellington, and a great work out.
