Wellington Airport
Gandalf, giant eagles and Smaug the Dragon were created by the famed craftsman of Oscar-winning Weta Workshop and are an eye-catching symbol as you walk through the airport. They are also a reminder as to the lasting impact The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies have had on Wellington and New Zealand.
Throughout the years, Wellington Airport has showcased many Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit epicness. Below are a few photos I have managed to capture over the years.
NOTE: At the time of writing this (21st August 2023) the only things left at the airport is Gandalf and Smaug.
