Simple and quick way to parse an XML file in iOS7

Question

I have a simple XML file like this

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<catalog>
    <timezone>
        <name>UTC-11:00</name>
        <place>
            <value>American Samoa</value>
            <value>Samoa</value>
        </place>
    </timezone>
    <timezone>
        <name>UTC-10:00</name>
        <place>
            <value>Honolulu</value>
            <value>Tahiti</value>
        </place>
    </timezone>
</catalog>

What is the canonical/standard way to parse this in iOS? I want to save "names" and "places" for each name.
