    -Listening to Tāmaki Herenga Waka - Audio Guide-the stories of Auckland: 16 Stops, 60 minutes

    "Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland is New Zealand’s biggest, most populous, and most diverse city. Explore the city’s past, present, and future with the Tāmaki Herenga Waka Audio Guide. This audio guide takes approximately 1 hour to complete and provides a curated route through the Tāmaki Herenga Waka exhibition on the Museum’s ground floor."

    "Welcome to Tāmaki Herenga Waka: Stories of Auckland. You can reach the exhibition from the left side of Te Ao Mārama, the South Atrium. Step through the entranceway and pause for a moment. To your left, you’ll see the many people and places of Auckland.

    This gallery takes its name from a whakataukī, or proverb, about Tāmaki Makaurau – the region you might know as Auckland. Tāmaki herenga waka means ‘Tāmaki, the gathering place of many waka’. The area has long been a desirable place to live, with its storied maunga and sparkling sea, and continues to bring people together.

    Tāmaki is a land of layered histories and diverse communities. In these galleries, you will meet some Aucklanders you might have heard of and others who are lesser known. You might learn new stories about places you thought you knew well or discover ones you’ve never been to.

    When we move around Auckland, we move through a landscape that has been lived on and enjoyed for generations. And we encounter people who are always innovating and pushing ahead. Here are just some of Auckland’s stories. What’s yours?"
