Destination Wanganui Wanganui New Zealand Wanganui, situated on the west coast of New Zealand is a picturesque and historic city. Visit our site for detailed information on Wanganui accommodation, activities and attractions. About Wanganui New Zealand Wanganui, with a population of 44,000 people, is affectionately known as the River City because of its proximity to the Whanganui River. This delightful provincial city has a rich cultural heritage dating back to pre-Colonial times. Victoria Avenue, the principal street in the commercial area, has been reconstructed with gas lights, wrought iron garden seats, and London plane trees. Many of the restored and preserved heritage buildings are in the Art Deco architectural style and provide a strong focus for tourism to the city. Wanganui was once an important coastal port with wharves and rail links, although few vessels now trade from the Port. Tourist ventures up and down the Whanganui River have increased steadily over the past few years and canoe and kayak trips on the upper river are particularly popular. The City has delightful parks and gardens, excellent cultural and sporting facilities, long-established schools, golf courses, and great beaches. The Art Gallery and Museum have international reputations and the local Polytechnic offers nationally recognised fashion and art courses. The computer graphic design school is reputed to be the best on the Pacific Rim. The Central North Island skifields at Whakapapa and Turoa are only a 2-hour drive away and it is only 2.5 hours to Wellington, New Zealand's capital city. |
