The Winter Flower House in Auckland DOMAIN has been open since 1928 and is a favorite of New Zealanders who love gardening culture. Flowers bloom in it all year round. Exotic flowers and plants from the South Pacific, ancient ferns, and colorful seasonal flowers are dazzling. The central courtyard is decorated in Victorian style and has exquisite sculptures. There is a beautiful cafe in DOMAIN, with blue sky and white clouds, and green everywhere. It is very pleasant to enjoy the flowers and drink coffee. Free.

We were here during summer in December. All the flowers were in full bloom and the glass house looks great. Entrance is free so if you&#39;re ever at Auckland Domain, don&#39;t forget to drop by.As the glasshouse is rather small, we would recommend not making this your sole attraction to visit but rather tie it up with a visit to Auckland War Memorial or during your walk around Auckland Domain.

As a famous scenic spot, the Sky Tower is basically a must visit place! The restaurant is also worth a try, as there are different packages available at different times. It is more convenient to book in advance on the website

It&#39;s a great place to visit, especially with kids. I love seeing all the animals. It&#39;s my first time seeing penguins, stingray, and sharks in person. It&#39;s super cool!

The whole experience was great, and it&#39;s a great place to learn about New Zealand&#39;s history and culture. The museum is quite large and worth a good half-day visit. There are many interactive exhibits, especially suitable for taking children out. There are also Chinese services, which is recommended.

Auckland Domain

Auckland Central Park is not like the common landscape parks in the city. It is more like a natural forest. The winding tree-lined paths and the tall trees on both sides make you feel like you are walking into the original green field, with thick fallen leaves and soft soil under your feet. The air is filled with the fragrance of plants, which is very suitable for jogging, walking the dog or just taking a quiet walk. There are also several sculptures and small bridges hidden along the way, which adds a little fun. Although it is not far from the city, you can completely escape the rhythm of the city once you enter the park.

Mount Eden

Mountain climbing

Although Mount Eden is not high, you can overlook the whole of Auckland from the top of the mountain, and the view is particularly wide. The remains of the crater are clearly visible, covered with green grass, a peaceful green. It is not difficult to walk all the way up. You can also see sheep grazing on the hillside. Their leisurely appearance makes people can&#39;t help but take a few more photos. The wind on the top of the mountain is very strong, but it is also very fresh, which makes people feel particularly bright. It is a good place that does not require tickets or planning, but can leave very deep memories.
