Wellington Wonders: A Journey Through Culture, Governance, and Nature
Beneath Wellington’s crisp harbour breezes, secrets pulse within stone columns and echo behind polished doors. The city hums with hidden sagas waiting just beyond the well-trodden path. Take this self-guided audio tour to uncover powerful stories and offbeat corners that most passersby never see. Let each stop reveal a new chapter in Wellington’s unfolding drama. Why did an unexpected power struggle inside Archives New Zealand leave a permanent mark on government history? What lost broadcasts still whisper through the vaults at Radio New Zealand late at night? Who smuggled a forbidden relic into Wellington Cathedral of St Paul, sparking outrage and wonder in equal measure? Stride past facades into shadowy corridors, cross sunlit squares laced with intrigue, and watch as political battles, buried scandals, and fleeting acts of rebellion flicker to life around you. Feel the city sharpen its edges as hidden tales come into view. Your journey begins here. Tune in and see what others overlook.
