Eerie Anzac Day scenes at NZ’s normally packed war memorials

Wellington’s Pukeahu War Memorial Park and the Auckland War Memorial Museum are normally the scenes of major Anzac Day commemorations.

Not this year.

Due to Covid-19 pandemic restrictions, there were no formal gatherings to remember those who have fallen in battle.

Instead, many New Zealanders chose to mark the day at home or in their street, meaning places where people normally flock on April 25 were eerily calm this morning.
