🇳🇿 Nelson, NZ | Ultimate Guide to Food & Sights

Sunny Nelson stole my heart as the coziest little city in the South Island! Here’s my curated list of must-dos: ⛪️ Sights Christ Church Cathedral: Grab a Chinese guidebook inside! Cable Bay: *30-min drive* → short hike to two-toned ocean views (watch for sheep poop! 🐑💩). Classic Car Museum: Vintage car heaven—models from every era. Nelson Provincial Museum: *Free 2nd-floor exhibits* (I caught an adorable animal photo show!). ☕️ Cafés & Eats 👍 Melrose House Cafe Gorgeous garden setting + solid coffee. Skip the desserts—sugar overload! 👍 The Styx Seafood chowder by the sea = perfection. 👍 The Free House Pub Church-turned-brewery! Do the beer tasting (5 samples, light → dark). 🍣 Kimchi & Wasabi Korean-run sushi spot—fresh & packed (go early!). 🍜 Green Bamboo Bustling Vietnamese—small plates > mains. ⚠️ Boat Shed Cafe Skip the chowder (Styx’s is better), but steak/seafood are decent. 🛍️ Markets 👍 Sunday Market Cheap produce + food trucks. Must-try: Fresh apple juice—NZ’s best! 🍏 #NelsonNZ #SouthIsland #NZTravel
