You can take a ferry from central Auckland to Devonport. It takes about 15 minutes by boat to reach the port town, which has a completely different style from the city center. There are several stylish second-hand bookstores/second-hand clothing/restaurants here There is also the most beautiful library in Devonport and Mount Victoria with a great view. I took a walk up Mount Victoria. It took about 20 minutes to reach the top. It won’t be tiring and the scenery along the way is super beautiful! You can get a 360-degree view of Auckland from the top of Victoria Peak Overlooking Rangitoto Island and the city center in the distance You can take beautiful photos of the scenery almost everywhere on the mountain There are also souvenir shops to visit on the way back to Devonport~ #100 Ways to Travel #New Zealand #Auckland #devonport #Devonport #Mount Victoria

#100 Ways to Travel #poortravel #newzealand New Zealand D0-D2 This time I came to New Zealand and bought a China Southern Airlines ticket, round trip was $17,000, don't doubt it Transit in Guangzhou, free transit accommodation is also provided (for free, I am super happy 🤣) You can also enter the country to try some Guangzhou delicacies and be shocked by the prices! Regular meals are really cheap, averaging around 100 Taiwan dollars. But tea and snacks are as expensive as regular meals (the price of the meat sandwich I bought is as expensive as a screw noodle set with vegetables, and the drinks are the same 🙃🙃) Overall, I think it's a good thing that I'm only here for a transfer, otherwise I might get fat to death here. It was already past five in the afternoon when we arrived in downtown Auckland on the first day, and most of the shops on the street were closed. In addition, the roads in downtown Auckland are up and down, and I feel tired even without luggage. New Zealanders are definitely hiking experts After two days in New Zealand, I had no idea what New Zealand cuisine was. Along the way, there are various exotic restaurants from China, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam and the United States. The next day, half-day tour to DEVONPORT The sea here is a lovely Tiffany color! It's great to go all the way from the pier to Victoria Hill Park There are many kinds of second-hand shops/restaurants/souvenir shops along the way. I even accidentally lost my money in a second-hand bookstore 😂 The fish and chips on the way were super delicious! Highly recommended, and the cheapest is 9 New Zealand dollars (depending on the type of fish) There is also an Indian curry shop opposite that looks delicious, but unfortunately I don't have the stomach for it. It only takes about 20 minutes to reach the top of Mount Victoria. The blue sky and white clouds are really beautiful. The grass on the top of the mountain is also very green. It is a good place to daydream. If you don't want to watch the sunset, it is recommended to come in the morning to reserve the place. I'm going to camp at the airport tonight and leave for Christchurch tomorrow 😂

#Overseas travel #Night view #New Zealand #Sunset #Auckland #New Zealand North Island There is a city view night view restaurant in New Zealand, famous for its nature?!? If you take a ferry from downtown Auckland, New Zealand, you can arrive at Devonport.⛴️ The most famous mountain in Devonport is Mt. Victoria! The best thing for people with weak stamina like me! You can climb it in less than 15 minutes, and you can see the night view of downtown Auckland at the top. There are cute mushroom-shaped vents at the top of the mountain, which are landmarks of Mt. Victoria👐🍄🍄🍄🍄 If the weather is good and you see the sunset, you will sit and stare blankly at the sunset and the night view of the city without even realizing how much time has passed🫢 I highly recommend Mt. Victoria in Devonport, a city view night view restaurant where you can overlook Auckland, the largest city in New Zealand at a glance!! The combination of night view and sunset is love🥰

In Auckland, there are two commanding heights that overlook the urban landscape of the city. One is Mount Eden and the other is Mount Victoria. Many people confuse these two places. Before I set off, I compared the photos on both sides. I prefer the open view of Victoria Hill, so I went straight to it. Victoria Hill in the Devonport area on the north shore of Auckland, passing through a bridge from the airport, is much farther than the Eden Mountains, and the Eden Mountains are on the South Bank. The bridge is a serious congestion point, but it is not a waste of time to take a picture of downtown Auckland when traffic jams. Come here to remember: with telephoto. Seeing Auckland's busy marina from here, it's still very clear, you can see the huge wheel filled with containers from the front. Known as the capital of thousands of sails in Auckland, when the weather is fine, there are a few sailboats on the water, like a resort city.
