Symonds Street Cemetery

A very nice old cemetery, and provides a tranquil place amid the hustle & bustle of city life. Have a nice sculpture and benches on the Karangahape Rd K'Rd side of the cemetery - next to the Jewish section of the cemetery. There's also a nice pathway that connects Symonds St and Upper Queen St. However, I won't use it at night as well as on rainy days as the pathway can be quite slippery.

Impressive cemetery, what is divided by bridge. Cemetery is divided in different sections and paths. Informative boards available, so you can learn more about history.

On a summer sunny day, it’s a great place for a short stroll. It’s all shaded. Some tombstones are run down. Avoid this place during the night though.

Nice cemetery...Personally being from Spain, you don't see a lot of cemeteries like this, so I was very pleased on the looks of it.

One of New Zealands oldest 19th century inner city cemeteries. Ravaged in the early 1970s by the motorway.

A nice historic cemetery, but there is a lot of trash around the stones and bushes. Tried to clean up some of the garbage I found on the trails, hopefully other visitors will do the same

This is a beautiful spot at the end of K road - it’s notorious for druggies but is in the process of being opened up - beautiful host amd well well and worth the walk but don’t go down to the woods alone....

The graves have been knocked over, broken and uncared for. There is garbage everywhere! We went to find a grave on a family member and couldn't find it because of how unclean and dirty this place was. There was mold growing over the headstones, headstones that are missing, and beer cans dumped over them. The council really needs to step it up and clean it up. I am completely disappointed and upset that we looked for 2 hours only to not being able to find the grave.

A great place to hangout with friends. It is one of the oldest cemetery in Auckland. Quite, green. Tables and chairs to seat and talk.

Good history behind this place nice place for a walk benches to sit and contemplate.Avoid at night.A place popular for the homeless to hangout.. avoid night walks.
