Auckland is the main gateway to New Zealand and its largest city with its vibrant waterfront life – not for nothing is it called the ‘City of Sails’ – and its busy Downtown district. Auckland may not be New Zealand’s capital – that distinction going to Wellington – but it is the country’s largest city and its major gateway for most travellers.
To the southeast is the sophisticated Parnell district, with the Auckland Museum and Auckland Domain Park, while to the northwest of the centre is Herne Bay and Ponsonby.
These are the hip and happening areas, with bohemian bars and cafés.
