It is big and nice with old-style stone design. It’s right next to the Beehive. The place looks clean and looked after. They do free tours which are good if you want to know more about New Zealand. A good place to see when you are in Wellington.
Visiting the New Zealand Parliament Buildings was one of the highlights of my Wellington trip. Even just admiring the exterior was impressive, but joining the free 1-hour guided tour really brought the place to life!nnThe tour was well-organised, interesting, and packed with historical insights—a great way to learn about New Zealand’s political system, past and present. Our guide was knowledgeable and engaging, explaining complex processes in a clear and accessible way.nnThe architecture is stunning, especially the contrast between the modern Beehive, the classical Parliament House, and the beautifully preserved Gothic-style Library building—a real standout!nnI was pleasantly surprised to find out that photos are allowed indoors, which made the experience even more memorable. From the grand debating chamber to the earthquake-proof base isolators in the basement, every stop on the tour was thoughtfully presented.nnA few tips:n- Book online in advance – spaces are limited and tours fill up fast.n- It’s completely free – you just need to show up on time with your confirmation.n- Even if you’re not a politics enthusiast, the history, design, and stories make it absolutely worthwhile.nnHighly recommend this for locals and tourists alike. A meaningful and enriching experience in the heart of the capital!
With a very interesting architecture, the parliament building is a very interesting place to visit. The visitor center is open 7 days a week. There is ample street car parking on both ends of the building but it’s costly. The parliament building is very accessible, and the guided tours on all seven days of the week come in very handy when visiting the city over the weekend. The entire parliament building has been made smoke free. A visit here is recommended
A visit to the Parlaiment Building outside, and the 1-hour tour indoors, is well worth the time on your visit to Welly.nThe tour is Interesting, informative, historic.nGreat architecture, especially the old Library building.nPhotos are permitted indoors!nBooking on-line is essential, as places are limited each tour, and limited tours per day.nThe tour is free no cost.nYes, recommended.
I cannot recommend the free hour long tour of the buildings highly enough. What an amazing experience and our young guide Tai a Māori gentleman just out of high school was mind blowing. His knowledge of everything from the history of the building, the political machinations of the parliament, the wood the chamber is made of and the names of female speakers was faultless. The buildings themselves are fabulous. It will depend on what functions are happening as to where you will be admitted, but there is a huge sense of pride in these buildings which span the political and groundbreaking history of this nation. Make this part of your itinerary, you will not be disappointed.
