Wellington Botanic Garden Easy to Do

Great variety of plants

There are six reasons to do the Wellington Botanic Garden:  1) you can arrive by cable car to the top of the garden and walk down (brilliant!); 2) you can marvel at the long established plantings on steep hillsides; 3) you can chat with the staff in the Visitor’s Centre; 4) you can get a toastie and a coffee in the Picnic Cafe in the Begonia House; 5) you can see a lot in a short amount of time or you can meander all day; and 6) you can enter from any point in the garden–there is no admission charge!!! (Thank you City of Wellington.)

Absolutely, positively Wellington? I say yes.

Picnic Cafe is part of Begonia House--a warm place to rest awhile on a cold day
