Chinese premier Li Qiang was greeted by a large crowd - some in support, others protesting his arrival in the capital - before his meeting with Prime Minister Christopher Luxon.
The visit marks the highest-ranking visit from a Chinese official to New Zealand in seven years. The premier is one of the highest-ranking political leaders in China, second only to President Xi Jinping.
Li was expected to receive a ceremonial welcome, followed by bilateral talks with the Prime Minister and an official dinner.
