Suburb of Wellington City, New Zealand
Aro Valley
The Aro Valley forms a small inner-city suburb of Wellington in New Zealand.
It takes its name from the stream which originally flowed where modern Hōniana Te Puni Street is. The stream's Māori name was originally Wai-Māpihi, but it was commonly called Te Aro Stream due to it running through the Te Aro flat.
