Te Papa: Giant Squid, Earthquake Simulators & Māori History
★4.8(1952)
Skip the paid guided tours; this place is huge, free, and best explored solo. Spend at least three hours wandering the Gallipoli exhibition for massive, haunting sculptures that hit hard. Don't skip the earthquake simulator unless you get motion sickness easily. Grab a coffee at the waterfront cafe afterward, but ignore the overpriced international entry tickets—general admission covers almost everything you actually want to see. It’s basically Wellington's living room, so just wander aimlessly.
