Amritsar is een architectonisch experiment van Ian Athfield, dat in 1965 begon op de Khandallah heuvel in het Nieuw-Zeelandse Wellington. Het is een huis dat uitgroeide tot een half ‘dorp op de heuvel’. Het begon als het huis van Athfield, waar in 1968 een kantoor werd aangebouwd en sindsdien geleidelijk aan steeds meer is uitgebreid. Het is waarschijnlijk Athfield’s belangrijkste gebouw, en zijn meest persoonlijke en was tot zijn dood in 2015 de thuisbasis van Athfield’s familie, vrienden, medewerkers en een architectuurpraktijk in de voorhoede van de Nieuw-Zeelandse architectuur.

Mount Kaukau

On a slightly overcast day, I took the train up the Ngaio Gorge to Khandallah and walked up Mount Kaukau. From the summit you get expansive views over the Wellington Harbour, and also out over to the wind turbines in Makara.

Northern Walkway: Simla to Wadestown

I took the very scenic Johnsonville Line train up to Simla Crescent in Khandallah then began my walk south towards Ngaio, where I was going to follow the Northern Walkway (southbound).

As you pass Ngaio and head towards Crofton Downs, you'll reach the entry to Trelissick Park, where the Northern Walkway becomes slightly more exciting than just the Khandallah Road footpath.

Through the lush Ngaio Gorge, there's a plethora of pathways to choose while you hear the distant trains chugging along the ridgeline above you.

Eventually though, you have to leave the trees and streams behind and head uphill, quite steeply, to reach Wadestown.

Here, at the foot of Hanover Street, where the Northern Walkway emerges from the park, you get an excellent view over the Ngaio Gorge. It also happens to present a great opportunity for trainspotting.

Khandallah in New Zealand ?? Yes it’s here and am not kidding !!

Khandallah in New Zealand ?? Yes it’s here and am not kidding !!

Khandallah – When you hear this word, can you think of what comes to your mind? If you are a Bollywood fan then it would be Immediately Amir Khan’s hit song “Aati Kya Khandala?” from the movie Ghulam correct? And probably, with a reference to the hill station in the Western Ghats in the state of Maharashtra. And then your thoughts and imagination would take you right into the green hills, covered…

"It's a new day. It's a new world. It's a new time... to be freeeeeee" Outside the New World Supermarket, Khandallah . Sometimes when I go in I like to imagine what it would be like if you could find a New World in there 🙂."And what would that new world be like?" I ask myself, building up various Utopias as I go. I'm trying to work out a model for how the world should be run that is better for everyone, not just for some. I'll let you know what I come up with! I@agine if you could go shopping for new worlds and carry one home in your basket! 💚💕♥️❤💗 🚗🍄👤👅#newworld #utopias #outandabout #khandallah #wellington #newworldsupermarket #singersongwriter #katzolitamason
