it doesn't look that good from afar, but up close, it's better.

6.5/10

7.5/10
For a capital city, the skyline isn't very good, but for a city of 180,000, it's very impressive. I like the way the hills and trees are right near the city - it gives it an un-polluted look.

7,5

8/10


great skyline for a city of its size.

pretty good for it's population 6.5

7/10

Not too bad. Quite beautiful.

Boxy skyscrapers
7/10

As a skyline, there is nothing special. It's nice, but it's small. 3/10

However, the fact that Wellington has only 340,000 people in it's entire metro area (most cities have single suburbs with this population) it does very well indeed. 8/10

So, taking both into account I say 6/10. Not a bad effort for such a tiny city! :cheers:

The interesting thing about Wellington is that it's a very lively city of its size. I was born in Wellington and lived there until 1997. I used to live on the same street as Wellington's then-tallest.

Wellington feels a lot bigger than it really is and there's lots of density street-level with lots of 15-20 storey buildings.

And it's got a larger city population than Sydney and Melbourne combined.

8/10, great skyline for its size.

I agree that it feels bigger than it is. Probably a lot also to do with being the nations capital.

When you say it has a larger city population that Sydney and Melbourne combined, I presume you mean city proper.

Speaking of which, one of the smallest city propers I came across recently was Perth. Which only has 6,300 people. (compared to it's metro of 1.5million)

Much better then I expected and very good for a city its size. 6.5/10 :)

wow impressive for its size!

alot of 'capital cities' have pretty bad skylines. Wellington has a much better skyline than Canberra (Canberra hardly has a skyline) and Washington doesnt have much of a skyline either.

7/10 for surprising me

Wow!

It looks a decent small skyline from a distance, up close and in the streets it looks even better!

A posotive 7.

I gave it an 8, cause i like it. :)

This is a much better skyline than I'd expected overall. I'm not sure about the designs though - very boxy. 6/10 for the skyline, 5/10 for the standard of buildings.

7/10
;)

That second Shot look like Hong Kong !

7.5/10

I expected more.........:)

Nice, but not a lot of originality. The scenery is nice.

hi

i like new zealand, and wellington is very elegant too, for being such small city, it has a great skyline

8/10

i love new zealand's winters too

cheers

Am there in 3 days cant wait

8.5
I like the density and the setting. Looks cozy.

Not bad...7.5

If there was one city that I would like live in NZ, this will be it. Small yet cosmopolitan in every way. Drive up 30min to Lower Hut, and you'll get a typical Kiwi rural feel. Wellington is my kind of city. Goodanya mates!

Wellington is a beautiful city, and those photos hardly shows any of the skyline. It looks best from the motorway looking across the harbour. Only 2 buildings above 100 metres though.

Beautiful city. And with a good skyline to boast it, especially for such a small city. I give it a 8/10.

beautiful city, no doubt. but not much skyline.

eww..Why do the people taht make these give sauch crappy photos all the time that never do a city any justice it's so anoying. I will be the first to find some better ones. :) (And if you find that rude...well i wish i cared more)

BTW, yay, my 300th post. :drunk:

The talls is so much similar to other cities. But's a small and nice skyline for europeans pensioners. Yes, I know that you're thinking about me -> :bash: Sorry is in fun :D . 6,5/10. The "geyser-ship" is very curious

that is very curious...It makes me want one. Yeh, I am definatly getting one someday. i frogot to say what I rate this city. I rate it an 8 because it's nice looking amd they have geyser boats :)

Quite flat but very dense 6,5/10

8/10

8/10 .. looks beautiful :D!

You really have to live there to appreciate wellingtons true beauty. But I do think Wellington really needs a nice tall building in the middle of the city sky scrape, which would give it some more character.

Thing is that wellington cant really have super tall buildings because of the risk from earthquakes, as there are some nice big fault lines that go through wellington.

An awesome city to live in.... 10/10 for living in the city..... and 8/10 for skyline

They could easily do that. Make it earthquake proof. Look at my city, they have alot of skyscrapers and it's got the same earthquake risk as Wellington.

Some nice scraper canyons there. :)

Yeah but in Wellington the CBD is built upon reclamied land which is very likely to sink in an earthquake. The major fault line of New Zealand actually runs 400m from the center of the city! Not only that, the only road access out of the CBD north is a motorway that actually runs along the fault line!

Here's a nice overview of the whole skyline I just found:

looks very intriguing!

i love it 10/10

beautifully laid the city and the skyline

6.0/10 for the skyline
overall city is 8.5/10

7.5/10

6.5

Still quite empty 6/10

not so great, did expect more after the stuff i heard...but it is rather dense...if not tall

6/10

A very nice, dense skyline not to many huge tall buildings there but makes up with it for it density

10/10

8/10

9/10- very well-developed for its pop.

My sister's family in this city, 7.5/10:)

6.5/10 The city is quite dense, but despite this and its natural beauty, i have to say it has got one of the worst location for building a city.

I think it would be easier if someone put up pictures that had the skyline from afar instead of in the city's center. But from what i can see it looks pretty good

7/10

7/10.

7.5 small yet I like the place somehow

uh-huh. Them city planners did their homework well....... :colgate:

Wellington is a great city to live in, no doubt. However, the skyline does not really impress me. Too small, lack of interesting buildings. If Auckland's an 8.5, Wellington can't be more than 6. The hills behind the city and the harbour are gorgeous though.

Just thinking where this place is located, how far from...everywhere and how beautiful it is make me vote a 9,5 :)

7/10 ;)

10, small, but very colorfull and well planned

7/10.

:eek2: 9.5/10

Vote: 9.0/10

Love the place - only city in the world with more bars 'n shit per head is New York. Thats some good company. There ain't a more on-to-it and international city of a similar size on the planet. And then there's the scenery and skyline.

ok, I'm not knocking Wellington here, but I just want to point out the fallacy with urban myth statistics. Someone in the media does some figures and prints them, and without anyone checking them out, they become gospel.

What's worse, is that they often develop into the monster that we see above.

Effectively, The original claim was that Wellington had more restaurants per capita than New York - and this is no big deal. Afterall at one time or another one may have slightly more or less than the other.

And yes, maybe at one point, the per capita figure for Wellington was higher than New York. But what exactly does that mean.

However, never did any claim describe New York as having the most per capita in the world, nor Wellington with second place.

Let's look at some raw figures.

Wellington has around 350 restaurants and a city proper population of 182,823 (2005 estimate)
http://www.wellingtonnz.com/AboutWellington/

New York City has around 19,000 restaurants with a city proper population of 8,168,338
http://www.plumbingfoundation.org/pipecaster/2000-04.htm (sorry about the link, I couldn't be bothered looking for more accurate websites, but I have seen this figure before at others)

This means that NY has 0.00232 restaurants per head, whilst Wellington has 0.00191 per head. Now, per capita there is not much difference. But let's put it another way. If you went to a restaurant every night of the week, in slightly less than a year, you would run out of choices, and that means going to every restaurant in the city, including the bad ones.

In New York, it would take you 52 years to visit every restaurant in the city. So in reality, having only 350 restaurants is not such a big deal - it doesn't make it a food capital of the world

As for other cities, there are problems with these comparisons internationally. I know the New York figure includes all places that serve food, including restaurants, bars, cafe's, kiosks, licensed street vendors etc, and from my understanding the Wellington figure includes restaurants, bars (that serve food), and cafe's - however, it may or may not include takeaways, kiosks or street vendors. Other cities are entirely different. London boasts a figure of 6000 licensed restaurants, but this doesn't include pubs and bars which serve food, nor cafe's, kiosks and other eatery's. When you add that figure up, it comes close to the New York total. And we are not even talking the majority of Europe here, which really does have a lot more resturants per capita than New York or Wellington (My suburb of Sachsenhausen in Frankfurt has more than 400 resturants, bars and cafes that serve food for only 54,000 people! And this is only a suburb!)

So, no, there is no such figure that puts Wellington as having the 2nd most restaurants/bars per capita in the world after New York. What it does have is around 350 which is average for an English speaking city of that size.

Sorry for the rant, but I really hate it when urban myths become monsters of misinformation.

Looks like a nice place to live..8/10

Gee Stan those pics are amazing.
Wellington is amazing

Wellington City has a Regional population of 423 000 people. It is the world's most southern capital and the only capital in the "Roaring Forties" latitudes. The city gets more sunshine than Auckland, Melbourne and London and less rain than Auckland and Sydney. Welly was voted the 18th hippest city in the world by Conde Naste Traveller magazine readers.

The interesting thing about Wellington is that it's a very lively city of its size. I was born in Wellington and lived there until 1997. I used to live on the same street as Wellington's then-tallest.

Wellington feels a lot bigger than it really is and there's lots of density street-level with lots of 15-20 storey buildings.

And it's got a larger city population than Sydney and Melbourne combined.

8/10, great skyline for its size.

Sydney actually has 150,000 in an area of 25 km2

Wellingon has 180,000 in 260km2

But I really want to visit it! looks sweet

Um, Wellington's not that big buddy! well at least not the built up area. I dunno where you got those facts from.

WOW! I had no idea that Wellington only had about 370,000 thousand... its probably more now... but still... for a city with 400,000 people even... This is so impressive! very dense. not super tall, but there's a few fairly tall towers. 8/10.

5/10....not bad I guess for the size of it's population.

8/10 I rate it -always I think it a beautiful city !

Wellington look awesome, beautiful surrounds and density. I must say it definitely beats Canberra in terms of appeal.

Looks extremely livable and has nice dnesity. It needs a few more talls to break the tabletop though. 7/10

It cannot be compared to Canberra. I can't really think of anywhere in NZ like Canberra -- maybe Albany, in theory.

Canberra is a planned capital like Brasilia, Abuja and Washington DC.

Wellington is a natural beauty -- that happens to be capital . It's more comparable to Hobart, Tasmania or Victoria, BC.

8/10 i stayed in Wellington in nov 1997 and loved every minute of it. I think for the size of the city it has a great skyline.

10/10

The density is hard to find in Australia and New Zealand.

6/10

For New Zealand to be so small, it's cities have some great skylines.

I've got to give it an 8/10.

Surely for a city of only 400,000 (metro area), it's one of the best in the world. It's extremely compact.
