Out and about in the CBD in New Zealand

"If you’re in the city and want some time out from all the noise, step into the Art Gallery for a while. It’s quiet and peaceful, and wandering from room to room pondering all the amazing works of art is really relaxing. Leave your bags, coats etc. at the front in a locker, so you can move around and take it all in unhindered."

"This place is adorable outside and in. It has a real rustic feel to it, and that plus the lovely service and great food makes for a fantastic dining experience. Feeling adventurous? Try the lamb brains! They’re actually pretty good. And it’s nice and close to walk to if you’re staying at Rydges or the Heritage."

"Naming three ingredients and having the bartender whip up a custom cocktail especially for you beats ordering a drink off a menu any day. Atticus has really cool décor, the atmosphere is awesome and the bar staff are highly entertaining. If you’re a cocktail fan it’s a must on a night out."
