How many times have you taken your running shoes to a conference, but never\u00a0made it to the gym? In Wellington, your delegates can exercise and see the\u00a0sights at the same time. A hike up Mount Victoria for panoramic views of the city,\u00a0or a stroll through the Botanic Garden are just a few minutes\u2019 walk away from the\u00a0inner city hotels.<\/p>\n

International guests also love the stories of nationhood and heritage as told at\u00a0the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, Parliament Buildings and the\u00a0region\u2019s many boutique museums. Others just like to take their shoes off and\u00a0sit on the golden sand on Oriental Bay with a good strong flat white. Who could\u00a0blame them?<\/p>\n
