If you're looking for things to do in New Plymouth, you cannot go past the Pukekura Park. There are multiple entries, car parking and public toilets around the park. At Pukekura Park, there’s something for everyone, whether you’re strolling through the botanic gardens, hitting the fitness track, taking your pup for a walk along dramatic tree-lined pathways, or enjoying a picnic with family and friends.There's also a tea house where you can enjoy some nice food & drinks. Also, there's an ice cream parlour which is opened the whole day.Kids would have fun at the playground doing different activities.

When the weather is good, the snowy mountains will emerge, and the snowy mountains are more beautiful and complement the green world everywhere. It is not easy to climb the mountain. There is also a volcano museum nearby.

The fireflies in childhood memory are in the summer dusk, as if scattered on the earth, the faint stars. We followed Maori guides on a boat, shuttled deep in the dark river in the cave. Looking up, the fireflies perched in the corners of the deepest cave, quietly exuding a faint halo. It is a pity that I can't use the camera phone to record this wonderful moment. If you can, you still have to be immersed and experience it in depth. Waitomo Firefly Cave is not only a place to literally see fireflies, but the stories of nature, history, culture and Maori ethnicity that it carries are even more exciting.

This scenic spot is very suitable for children, the overall fun is full, the best choice for Chinese group if English is not good, there are many introductions and memories, it is necessary to listen to it, it is a good experience for fans who like the movie ring, we chose Chinese tour guide, but it is obvious that this tour guide is a bit broken, He took half of the people to be a domestic tour group. All kinds of unruly behavior along the way, he was helpless and useless. Those people didn’t listen. Finally, there was a bridge where these people sat on the beam of the bridge to take pictures. It was not allowed. The guide rushed to save them. Finally, they disappeared. They didn’t appear at the meeting place. The tour guide wanted to cry without tears. They were told by the bus driver and other staff in the scenic spot. After waiting for a long time, we could only go. The tour guide didn’t talk to the bus along the way. I felt a little sorry for him. I am also a little ashamed of some of my compatriots who have gone abroad.

The park is quite large and its landform is very novel to me. It takes about 30 minutes to drive from the city and the park provides parking. After the front desk says the verification code, it will be stamped on the hand, and the print on the hand will be checked before entering the park, which is very convenient.

Very iconic views and definitely worth it if you're making a trip to Auckland. Great way to see the entire city, grab a cocktail, or dinner reservations. If you eat at the restaurant, you get discounted tickets. Walking along the clear glass floor was a little scary, but super safe. Bungee jumpers can be seen jumping off which is neat to see. Elevators are extremely fast and overall it's a very easy experience.

Aigoton Farm belongs to the Rotorua area, the weather is chaotic, a while rainstorm, a while out of the sun, go out completely by luck. Fortunately, rent a car by yourself, travel is more convenient, otherwise it is really the hell!

Just 5 km from down town Auckland it’s the highest volcano in Auckland on Mt Eden. The last eruption was about 15,000 years ago, leaving a crater 50Mt deep. Walk to the top of Mt Eden Volcano, there you’ll get a 360° view of Auckland so long as the rain stays away.

Aquariums

In 1983, Kelly Tarleton proposed building an aquarium in unused sewage tanks underground on the Auckland waterfront. The fish could be viewed through a long acrylic tunnel.The aquarium opened in 1985 after 10 months of construction. Tarleton developed a new method for building an acrylic tunnel by taking large sheets of clear acrylic, cutting them to size and heating them in an oven until they took shape. Some of the sheets weighed more than a ton. Due to the refraction caused by light passing through the water and the acrylic sheets used to create the tunnel, the fish appear to be a third smaller than they actually are.The main features of the aquarium are "Meeting with Antarctica" and "Underwater World", but it also includes several other exhibits and several study rooms.
