Bam! We're right here in the heart of Auckland culture—Aotea Square. 'Aotea' is Māori for 'White Cloud,' named after one cool Māori canoe.\n\nWhip out your phones, we've got some insta-worthy spots right here! Aotea Square is where city vibes meet culture-meets-art. Ever wondered what standing on a work of art feels like? Take a look at the square's stairs – it's like a rainbow under your feet!\n\nBet you didn't know this square was fought for by Sir Dove-Myer Robinson! Dude spent 18 years pushing for this open space. Now we have this dope square where political rallies, festivals, and art installations all party together.\n\nCheck out the Maori art! 'Waharoa' is an arch at the entrance showing off the locals' rich history. Don't forget to snap some pics that capture the buzz of Aotea Square – a street performer, a wicked angle of an iconic sculpture – whatever grabs you!\n\nOnce you're done exploring, we'll catch a public bus over to Mt. Eden for our next adventure spot in the Mount Eden Walk. But no rush, soak up the atmosphere – this place is awesome! Remember, Auckland is packed with stories worth exploring - let's keep discovering, sharing, and leggin' it around this magical city.\n\n"},{"type":"place","content":{"place_id":"ChIJn0svh-9HDW0RMIBTBUuDdjg"}}]},{"address":"Aotea Square","ttsFile":"https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/freeguides-prod.appspot.com/o/assets%2Ftours%2F4i02PzmiTTbCuE2QXsT2%2Ftts_2.mp3?alt=media&token=1148ac12-66d4-44a8-b805-3808f7fa7336","placeId":null,"location":{"longitudeDelta":0.13092380560724579,"latitudeDelta":0.09219986310369421,"latitude":-36.851863912448955,"longitude":174.7641438376006},"media":[{"type":"text","content":"Hop on buses 25B or 25L at Aotea Square and head towards Mount Eden Road.

Welcome to the heart of Auckland - Mount Eden, or as the locals call it, Maungawhau. It literally towers over all the volcanic cones here in the city – all 53 of them. Wild, right?\n\nNow, this isn't just an ordinary mountain, folks. Its Maori name, Maungawhau, means 'mountain of the whau tree'. Plenty of those used to cover this hill way back when. \n\nWhile we stroll around this track, just take a moment to enjoy the nature. There's the chirpy sound of native birds, the bright red of the pōhutukawa trees, and the cool grass underfoot. Makes you realise why Kiwis hold this place near and dear, doesn't it?\n\nDon't be shy with your camera either; this is a view you'll want to remember. Go for that 360-selfie, I bet it'll look epic! And hey, keep an eye on that little fenced area to the north- that's the whau tree reserve. It's not as big as it was but every bit as cherished.\n\nSoak it all in, guys. The scent of the sea on the breeze, the tranquillity of it all; it's all part of our shared heritage. When you're ready to trade peace for a bit of energy, we'll head down and explore the lights and action of K-road and LightPath.\n\nFor now, just enjoy. Take snaps, breathe in the air, and make the most of Maungawhau.
