The National Museum of Tipapa in New Zealand is an important museum dedicated to the history of Australia's indigenous culture and paleontology. The collection of fossils of many ancient animals here is very amazing, and the Maori cultural exhibition here is also colorful, showing the cultural characteristics of New Zealand in all directions, making people linger.

Wellington's Cable Car Museum is located at the foot of the famous Victoria Hills, which is also the starting point for the Victoria Hill Cable Car. It is a textbook for the development of cable cars in various periods of more than 100 years. After visiting Victoria Mountain, you may wish to come here for a walk and learn about it.

The Carter Observatory is one of Wellington’s most famous attractions, and it has been around for more than 100 years. There are many books related to astronomy, and there are many interactive areas for tourists, so you can easily and simply learn a lot of esoteric astronomy knowledge, which is definitely worth visiting.

Wellington City and Ocean Museum is a professional museum that fully demonstrates the compatibility of cities and oceans and coexists harmoniously. There is a large area here to showcase New Zealand's splendid marine culture and how human culture coexists with the sea nature. Some contributions and experiences are worth reference.

This is a really good museum. The quality, details and variety of the exhibition are impressive. The design and layout are well thought out. I was particularly impressed and even shocked by the Stalingrad exhibition. It was a must-see experience.

Picton was once the main port on New Zealand's South Island, and the town lost its aura after the whale-catching era. The museum is located next to i-SITE, showing the history of Picton and the surrounding area. The museum also displays a century-old ship that has crossed the Pacific several times.

It is a great display of costume art, supplemented by a 30-point cut video of last year's performance. It is really great to be able to watch the exhibits up close. The antique car display is a plus point, and you are very happy to see the car if you are not interested. The entrance passage store has lots of things for local artists to sell, although I understand their price is a premium, it is a pleasure in itself. If in this area this is a must see attraction.
