About Auckland

Auckland, de grootste stad van Nieuw-Zeeland, ligt op een landengte tussen twee havens, bezaaid met vulkaankegels, stranden en baaien vol eilanden.

De Sky Tower rijst boven het centrum en de waterkant uit, waar de Viaduct Harbour en het Wynyard Quarter vol restaurants en jachten liggen, passend bij Aucklands bijnaam, de Stad van de Zeilen. Mount Eden en One Tree Hill, twee van de vele vulkaankegels die over de stad verspreid liggen, bieden panoramisch uitzicht.
