In this image, the urban landscape of Lower Hutt is depicted with a serene coastline stretching out towards the vast expanse of the sea. The city, with its distinctive topography, is nestled between the rolling hills and the Hutt River. The daytime scene showcases the picturesque buildings, their facades reflecting the clear, bright daylight.
