Marina visited Wellington, New Zealand.


I visited Wellington in New Zealand. It is the capital city of New Zealand, it is in the North Island.
The legend says the city was explored on the 10th century. The city receives its name in honor of Arthur Wellesley, the 1st Duke of Wellington and the winner of Waterloo battle.
Wellington has an oceanic climate: mild and humid throughout the year, the rainiest season is Winter.
There are 410.000 inhabitants in Wellington but it is not the  biggest city in New Zealand, it is Auckland.
People play many sports there, but mainly rugby and soccer.
