Wellington


	Wellington is the capital of New Zealand, though it’s not the biggest city. Currently there are 326000 people living in the city. The biggest city of the country is Auckland in the very north of the North Island with just under 1 million people. To me Auckland and Wellington resembled most closely of all New Zealand cities what European cities are like.


	This building is called the “Beehive”, and it really looks like one, too. But there are no insects in there, but the members of the New Zealand parliament. Whether they are as busy as bees I leave open for discussion. They are politicians, after all! One remarkable thing to say of this building: It is built entirely from wood.


	More pictures from Wellington will come up soon here...
