Auckland is a cosmopolitan city with a rich culture, and it offers a harmonious mix of the urban and the natural.
The city boasts 26 regional parks, one of which is the Waitakere Ranges Regional Park. Here, you’ll find over 250 kilometers (155.34 miles) of hiking and walking trails winding through a rainforest and majestic waterfalls. Indeed, the city focuses on biodiversity and ecology, and Auckland Zoo is proof of that. Housing rare and threatened species, it promises to fill you with awe and appreciation for diverse creatures. In addition to natural wonders, the city offers memorable cultural experiences, and the Auckland Art Gallery is a good place to start.
For smooth connectivity to attractions and to savor world-class cuisines, the city’s central business district is a convenient area to stay in. For great options, scroll down for the best Airbnb vacation rentals in Auckland CBD, New Zealand.
