One area within Wellington you should check out is the colourful Cuba Street with rows of quirky boutiques, cafes, and street art – a sure hit for those who love all things hipster.

Here’s one for the Lord Of The Rings fans: Wellington houses some of the filming locations that were used in the fantasy movie series. Kaitoke Regional Park was Rivendell, and Harcourt Park was the Gardens of Isengard. 

The Putangirua Pinnacles in the Aorangi Ranges where Legolas, Aragorn and Gimli fought the Army of the Undead.

While in Wellington, it’s also worth taking a domestic flight from there to Christchurch, which will only set you back by just $100 or less. Nature buffs can go for a leisurely stroll through the ancient kahikatea forest of Riccarton Bush, visit Orana Wildlife Park, NZ’s only open-range zoo, or hike up the scenic Mount Kaukau for some of the best views.

The arts-inclined will love the little art galleries peppered throughout Canberra – such as the National Gallery of Australia for Australian, Indigenous, and Asian paintings, and the kitschy Canberra Contemporary Art Space for modern installations and abstract pieces.

Spend a weekend if you can, because the Old Bus Depot Markets at Canberra are open on Sundays only. Here’s where you can stock up on unique handcrafted trinkets, flowers, and decorative items to bring back for your friends as souvenirs. Oh, and snag some freshly baked sweet treats for yourself as you’re combing through the market!
