Taimoana | Coastlines explores the art of Aotearoa New Zealand, locating it within Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa, the wider Pacific region. Taking the concept of the coast, or shoreline, as a starting point, the exhibition navigates a sea of ideas, offering multiple perspectives on New Zealand art through a selection of works from the collection of Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki.
The coast is central to the way of life of many in Aotearoa New Zealand and it has been throughout our entire history. Integral to te ao Māori, the Māori world, the interconnectedness of land and sea is reflected in cultural narratives and practices. The coast is at times a source of sustenance and employment, at others a route for travel, a space of recreation, conflict, well-being or inspiration, but also, as the climate continues to change, at the frontline of danger. The coast is a threshold, an in-between zone, a perpetually shifting meeting point of land and sea that prompts us to examine our relationships with both.
In this exhibition, artists from the 18th century to today ride the oceans’ currents, traversing themes from the enormity of the Pacific to the vessels that have crossed its expanse and plied Aotearoa’s coasts, and exploring their personal responses to the shore as well as the legacies of colonial encounters and conflict.

I would highly recommend visiting the Auckland Art Gallery as the exhibitions are thoughtfully curated and features both permanent and non permanent collection. We love the inspiring art by Robin White at the time we visited last December. There&#39;s a cafe and art shop where you can purchase unique crafts and souvenirs. Entrance is absolutely free.

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

The venue area is slightly smaller, but the content is still very rich, and the rainy day is not affected at all. Very suitable for playing with the nearby Mission Bay. The souvenirs inside are very cute and bought several plush 😘

Museums

The whole experience is great and it is a good place to understand New Zealand&#39;s history and culture. The museum is quite big, it is worth a long time to visit, there are many interactive exhibits, especially suitable for walking the baby. There is also Chinese service, recommended.

Central Park in Auckland is not like the landscape park in the city, closer to a natural forest. The linden trails are winding, and the tall trees on both sides make it seem like they have entered the pristine greenery, with thick fallen leaves and soft soil at their feet. The air is full of plant fragrance, suitable for jogging, walking dogs or just walking quietly. There are also several sculptures and small bridges hidden along the way, adding a little fun. Although not far from the city, you can completely get out of the rhythm of the city as soon as you enter the park.

Mount Eden

Mountain climbing

Although Mount Eden is not high, it is overlooking the entire Auckland from the top of the mountain and has a particularly wide view. The remains of the crater are clearly visible, and the grass covers it, a peaceful green. It is not difficult to go up all the way. You can also encounter sheep on the hillside. The leisurely appearance makes people unable to take a few more photos. The wind on the top of the mountain is very strong, but it is also very fresh, and the mood is particularly clear. It is the kind of good place that does not need tickets and does not need planning, but can leave a very deep memory.
