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
I love visiting government buildings when traveling so it was a real treat to join a free guided tour at the Beehive. So much to admire about the building, the people of New Zealand, and their leaders.

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.
