My Trip Around the World, Wellington


Now I'm in Wellington, New Zealand. Wellington is the capital. I came here because I'm trying to visit everywhere in the world.

Did you know...

Wellington is the world's most southern capital and central Wellington is only two kilometres in diameter.

Wellington is located at the southern tip of New Zealand's North Island.

Evidence of early Maori settlement and cultivation can be found at sites all around the Wellington peninsula.

Wellington is home to these famous movie stars:
Peter Jackson (Lord Of The Rings, King Kong).
Geoff Dixon (Silver Screen) and Cloud 9 (The Tribe, Enid Blyton series).
Richard Taylor (Lord Of The Rings, King Kong, Jane and the Dragon).

Wellington is home to most national theatre, dance and performance companies, as well as the national museum, archives and library.
