AWOL’s Guide To The Real Auckland
Auckland is a subtropical city, built on an isthmus of 53 volcanos between two harbours. After decades of haphazard growth and mediocre development, in the last five to 10 years, Auckland has transformed with a new wave of considered expansion and renewal. There’s never been a better time to be here.
The biggest city in New Zealand with a population of 1.4 million, Auckland attracts creativity and talent from around the country. It also attracts migrants from all over the world. With a population that is about 11% Maori, 15% Pacific Islanders and 23% Asian, Auckland is one of the most diverse cities in the world.
Come for the sun and the sand and the bush. Stay for the coffee and the dumplings.
