The compact downtown is easy to explore on foot. Take a nocturnal tour of Karori Wildlife Sanctuary to meet some colorful inhabitants. People watch while sipping coffee in lively Courtney Place. Discover the city's Maori roots at the Museum of Wellington City & Sea, plus more of its identity at Museum of New Zealand. Survey the city from scenic Mount Victoria. « less
