Wellington is home to New Zealand's governement, the Parliament Buildings built in 1912 but delayed due to World War I, were completed in 1918. This Edwardian neo-classic building was never completed. You will notice that the main entrance steps are off center, this is because the southern wing of Paliament was never built. Instead the proposed site for this is now taken up by the "Beehive" built in 1981, its it named the "Beehive" because of it external shape. The Parliament grounds are immaculate and are great for photos.
