Which country is the City of Sails?

The City of Sails is from New Zealand.

On the north side of New Zealand's North Island, there is a city called Auckland, the City of Thousand Sails. It is also a peculiar city formed along the crater. Compared with the South Island, the natural terrain of the North Island of New Zealand has a more tortuous coastline. Auckland, which faces the sea on both sides, is an absolute coastal city. It is also known as the "City of Thousand Sails" because it has the largest number of sailboats in the world. ".

As the largest port city in New Zealand and one of the most developed cities in the world, Auckland has been rated as one of the most livable cities in the world for many years. Therefore, just using the title "City of Sails" to summarize Auckland is still too general.
