New Zealand is made up of two main islands known as the North and South islands. Auckland is the largest city, holding almost a third of New Zealand’s population and located at the tip of the North Island. Despite being a large city, it still boasts the stunning beauty the rest of the country is known for. There are plenty of museums, art galleries, and the Auckland zoo to explore. It’s also easy to get out on the water while studying in Auckland, with regular whale and dolphin tours and day trips to the dozens of small islands nearby.
Travel south to bottom of the North Island and you can explore Wellington, New Zealand’s capital city and the southernmost capital city in the world. While studying in Wellington students can learn more about the country by visiting the Museum of New Zealand, the parliament buildings, and The Museum of Wellington City and Sea. Wellington also has a plethora of bars, cafes, and restaurants to experiment with.
Heading to the South Island, you’ll find the charming city of Christchurch. Study abroad students who choose Christchurch can check out the Willowbank Wildlife Reserve for a glimpse of a kiwi bird, take a ride up the gondola for stunning views of the city and nearby harbors, and can’t miss the unique opportunity to go punting or fishing on the Avon River.
At the very bottom of the South Island is the vibrant city of Dunedin, host to the University of Otago, the oldest university in New Zealand, and yet another great place to study abroad in New Zealand. At the center of the city is The Octagon, where students can find numerous bars, restaurants, and accommodations all within walking distance of each other. Dunedin is also home to Baldwin Street, the world’s steepest residential street.
