E nga reo, e nga mana, nga mataawaka o te motu, nga karanga maha puta noa i te Ao, e mihi ana ki te whenua e tangi ana ki nga tangata, ko rongo te po ko rongo te ao. Nau mai, haere mai, whakatau mai ki Tamaki Makau rau, Tamaki Paenga Hira. Ki te whei ao ki te ao Marama, hui e taiki e!

To the orators, the authorities, the faces of the many canoes of this land, and the peoples of the world, greetings to the earth and special reminiscences to our ancestors. Welcome, welcome, welcome to Auckland and Auckland War Memorial Museum. Into the world of light, it is done!

Auckland War Memorial Museum tells the story of New Zealand, from our unique flora and fauna and our history at war, to our priceless collection of Maori and Pacific treasures. The Museum’s galleries showcase the natural, cultural, and social history of New Zealand. For kids, two award-winning Discovery Centres provide hands-on fun and exploration of the natural world and human culture. Housed in one of the nation's finest heritage buildings and with spectacular views of Auckland City and the harbour, Auckland Museum is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike.
