Auckland (New Zealand )

 
Sailboats cruise by the Harbour Bridge
Auckland has been a hot spot for an awfully1 long time, but the reasons have quite fortunately changed.

New Zealand's largest city and prime international gateway2 resides on some 48 volcanoes, but it's been 600 years since lava3 flowed from any of them. Those volcanic4 hills have created great park space, fabulous5 (惊人的;难以置信的)panoramic views and twin harbors filled with watercraft. In fact, Auckland's nickname is The City of Sails.

It's a sprawling6 metropolitan7 area (actually four cities) of more than one million souls, including the largest concentration of Polynesians on the planet. And it's known for its multicultural8 flair9.

The big attraction is all that waterfront property and the leisure pursuits that go with it. On land, there's a variety of museums (including a highly regarded Maritime10 Museum) and the famed Kelly Tarlton's Aquarium11, with its sharks and penguins13 and masses of sea life.
