The allure of Wellington

It’s hard to explain the draw of Wellington. On the surface, it doesn’t work. A mix of historic buildings and 1970s-era designs.

But, the people. The food. The vibe. The coffee!

Yes, the coffee.

I would put Wellington on the short list of must-see places. It is a beautiful destination worthy of exploration.

Plus, it may have the best train station in all of New Zealand. Plus a funicular! Who doesn’t love a funicular? It beats walking up the hill if nothing else.
