Review & FAQ:

Stretched on the hill between Kelburn and Thorndon not far from central Wellington, is Wellington Botanic Garden, a magnificent 26-hectare urban oasis with breathtaking views, a unique native landscape, exotic dense forests, native bush, colorful displays of seasonal blooms, and beautiful specialist gardens. Stroll between the flower beds to see the Duck Pond, Sundial of Human Involvement, Lady Norwood Rose Garden, Begonia House, Treehouse Visitor Information Centre, Children's Play Area, and the historic and serene Bolton Street Memorial Park, a cemetery where many of the city's pioneers are buried. Visit Lady Norwood Rose Garden from mid-November to the end of December when its 3,000 roses in 110 beds create an extravagant show of color and fragrance. Take a walk through Wellington Botanic Garden's Sculpture Trail, with seven significant artworks by New Zealand’s most renowned sculptors.
