<strong>Auckland</strong> is defined by its harbourside location,<br />

with the central city on the doorstep of the Viaduct<br />

Harbour, Princes Wharf and vibrant Wynyard<br />

Quarter. Here you can enjoy an expertly made<br />

espresso, relaxed café lunch or experience the fine<br />

wine and Pacific Rim-inspired cuisine that makes<br />

<strong>Auckland</strong> one of the world’s great food and<br />

wine destinations.<br />

If you love the inner-city feel, check out the Britomart<br />

precinct in downtown <strong>Auckland</strong> for the newest and<br />

hippest bars, cafés and restaurants. Or there’s K’ Road,<br />

known for its diverse and creative culture and eclectic<br />

mix of cafes, boutique shops and nightlife.<br />

If shopping is more your thing, you’ll discover that<br />

<strong>Auckland</strong> is a fashion-lover’s paradise. From haute<br />

couture to hot deals, the central city has it all. The<br />

fringe suburbs offer an exciting variety of dining and<br />

entertainment for all hours. Ponsonby, Newmarket and<br />

Parnell are great for shopping by day and dinner, drinks<br />

or dancing by night. Check out Kingsland and Mount<br />

Eden for new galleries, bars, shops and restaurants.<br />

There’s always plenty of live entertainment options<br />

too – from live theatre, comedy and concerts to popular<br />

Broadway musicals at The Civic.<br />
