Mount Victoria
With its hilly streets, unpredictable weather and thriving food scene, Wellington can feel a bit like
San Francisco. Take in the sights from atop Mount Victoria, nearly 200 meters above Wellington, with panoramic city and harbor views. Mount Victoria was also a setting in
Lord of the Rings, and is one of Wellington's most accessible movie locations. The neighborhood at the base is home to a growing number of restaurants and cafés within an easy walk of the city center.
