Mount Victoria , Neuseeland

Mount Victoria, locally abbreviated to Mt Vic, is a prominent hill (height 196 metres) to the east of the centre of Wellington, New Zealand, and its associated suburb. To the south of it is a spur, Mount Albert, and the two are linked by a ridge.

The suburb of Mount Victoria is a mixture of residential and commercial activity on the western flank of the ridge above the southern end of the Wellington Central Business District. Adjoining suburbs, almost entirely residential, are Oriental Bay 24, Roseneath and Hataitai.

Government House, the home of New Zealand's Governor-General, lies on the slopes of Mount Victoria to the south of the Basin Reserve, between Mount Victoria and Newtown. Behind it is Wellington Hospital.

A Greek Orthodox church is on Mount Victoria's western flank, while the Basin Reserve sports stadium and National War Memorial lie near its foot. Schools in the area include Wellington College and Wellington East Girls' College.

The Hataitai Bus Tunnel and the Mount Victoria Tunnel (SH1) run beneath the ridge, connecting the central city with Wellington International Airport, Evans Bay and the Miramar Peninsula.
