| Nelson Overview |
| The marvellous climate, sandy beaches and apple orchards of this city make it a pleasant, sunny place to visit, and the seasonal employment and low prices of smallholdings a very pleasant, sunny place to live in, especially for those looking for an alternative lifestyle to the fast paced, fume filled bustle of big city industry. |
| Nelson Essentials |
Suter Gallery – On show at the gallery is the finest collection of colonial watercolours in the South Island, bequeathed by The Bishop of Nelson, Andrew Suter in 1891.
Churches – The architecture of the churches in the Waimea Plain recall the colonial era, including the parish church of St John’s, built in 1846 and the second oldest in the South Island.
Orchards – The extensive apple orchards, and fruit produce such as kiwi, berry, and the entire national crop of hops, create much of this sunshine city’s image and seasonal work.
Handicrafts – The excellent properties of the clay around Nelson make it an important pottery producer, but other crafts such as weaving, glass blowing, and silverwork are also well represented.
Climate – The wonderful climate in Nelson attracts hordes of vacationers to its beaches, hotels, and motels swelling the population from the 36,000 to over double that at Christmas. |
