Auckland and New Zealand are famous for being expensive destinations to visit, however there are still some amazing free things to do! The best is the Winter Gardens in the beautiful Auckland domain, located near the Auckland National Museum it’s a great stop that’s totally free or charge. The garden is made up of two huge greenhouses, connecting forecourt and an out of this world fernery. I wasn’t expecting it to be this stunning but I was blown away, the greenhouses contain immaculately maintained flowers - some I have never seen before. The forecourt was water features, statues, benches and ornate hedges - there is also a lot of information around the flowers to help you understand their origin and their purpose. For me a highlight was the fernery, a huge outdoor area full of ferns that made me feel like I was in Jurassic park - it felt like I’d been transported to another world. The garden is a listed and protected monument of NZ, it was finished in 1928 and has had various refurbishments over the years. Definitely a hidden gem of the city, well worth a visit! 📍Address: Auckland domain 💰Average Price per Person: Free entry!! 🕰️Business Hours: 9-5PM 🏖️Ambiance/Facilities: plenty of seating and information, public toilets nearby.

I didn't expect that there is such a beautiful greenhouse garden in the center of Auckland. We took the bus to the Holy Trinity Cathedral and visited there. The entire Central Park is huge, vast and lush. It takes about 20-30 minutes to walk from the park entrance to the Central Greenhouse Garden. You need to climb a slope on the way, and many people drive there by themselves. The glass-shaped exterior design echoes the blue sky and is very beautiful. This is a #free-ticket attraction. We went there on Saturday at noon and there were not many people. What caught our eyes were the flowers that were well taken care of. The flowers were in great condition and very suitable for taking beautiful photos. There is also a large pool in the middle, which looks beautiful no matter how you take pictures. There are two greenhouses in total, and another one belongs to the tropical rainforest. It is also beautiful to take pictures there. The feeling of greenery surrounded by nature makes people feel relaxed and happy! Actually, I didn't plan to visit this attraction. It just happened to be a pleasant surprise. ❤️ #New Zealand Attractions #Auckland Attractions #wintergarden #February Good Places 2025

Auckland's Domain Wintergardens offers a delightful escape into nature with free entry. While wedding photography is not allowed, visitors can enjoy the beautiful floral displays. Located just behind the War Museum, it's a perfect spot to visit after exploring the museum. During winter, when most flowers wilt, the Winter Garden provides a vibrant alternative. To the left, you'll find the Fernery, and ahead lies the tropical garden, though it has fewer attractions. The garden isn't very large, so you can leisurely explore it in about 30 minutes. #NewZealand #Auckland #Travel #Wintergardens #FloralEscape

This is a review of a garden located in Auckland. It is popular as a photo zone and is free to enter, so it is great to see👍😆 It is not large in size, but there is a garden called Fenery where ferns are planted, so it shows the characteristics of New Zealand well! ‼️Since there is a War Memorial Museum nearby, I recommend going to both! 📍Domain Wintergardens #HongKongFlightEvent
