Hop aboard the cable car for a stunning panorama of Wellington and the Hutt Valley. This charming funicular railway transports visitors between Lambton Quay, the city's bustling shopping hub, and Kelburn — a hilltop suburb with breathtaking views over the city centre. Climbing 120 m (394 ft) across a distance of 612 m (2007 ft), it's quite the ride. The upper terminal not only offers access to the verdant Botanic Gardens but also houses a free museum that delves into the century-long history of the Wellington Cable Car.

Avenue Habib Bourguiba, the grand central boulevard of Tunis, channels Parisian elegance with its tree-lined median, sidewalk cafés and historic facades. The thoroughfare, named after Tunisia’s first president, serves as a busy commercial hub and an open-air museum of 20th-century history, flanked by landmarks like the French Embassy and the neo-Byzantine Cathedral of St Vincent de Paul. Dominating the eastern end, the Tunis Clock Tower rises 38 metres above Place du 7 Novembre. Its gilded, lattice-patterned design blends modernist and traditional motifs, glowing amber after dark. Though functionally modest (locals joke about its reliability), the tower’s height and central roundabout position make it an unavoidable landmark. By day, the avenue thrums with shoppers and coffee drinkers; by evening, it becomes a stage for leisurely promenades. For visitors, it’s less about individual sights than the collective energy: the hum of conversation, the scent of orange blossoms, and the weight of history beneath your feet.

Werdhi Budaya Art Centre is a cluster of traditional wooden buildings, galleries, and pavilions where you’ll find Balinese handicrafts on display. The outdoor theatre hosts music and dance performances, including classic Balinese shows. If you're lucky, you might catch the Bali Art Festival here—it's the island’s biggest cultural event and usually takes place in June and July.

Tegenungan Waterfall, also called Blangsinga, is about 30 minutes from Ubud and pretty easy to reach. It’s one of the more popular waterfalls in Bali, so don’t expect it to be quiet—but the flow is strong, the jungle backdrop is dense, and you can wade in the pool at the bottom. Go early if you want to avoid the tour groups.
