Highlights
Government Gardens
The Government Gardens is a public park, partly laid out as gardens, located beside Lake Rotorua in central Rotorua, Bay of Plenty, North Island, New Zealand. It was built by the government as a tourism attraction, and is still a major tourism destination in New Zealand.
Mount Maunganui
Set on a peninsula, Mount Maunganui is a laid-back suburb known for the extinct Mount Maunganui volcano, a sacred Maori site with ocean-view hiking trails. Long, sandy Main Beach is popular for its surf breaks, while Pilot Bay Beach has calm waters for paddle boarding. The Mount Hot Pools complex offers saltwater bathing and spa treatments, while brunch spots, global restaurants, and boutiques fill the town centre.
Rotorua
Rotorua, a town set on its namesake lake on New Zealand's North Island, is renowned for its geothermal activity and Maori culture. In Te Puia’s Whakarewarewa Valley, there are bubbling mud pools and the 30m-tall Pohutu Geyser, which erupts many times daily. It’s also home to a living Maori village and the New Zealand Maori Arts and Crafts Institute, with traditional wood carving and weaving schools.
Te Puia
The New Zealand Māori Arts and Crafts Institute opened in 1963 in Rotorua, New Zealand due to the impending threat of the loss of traditional Māori arts.
Whakarewarewa
Whakarewarewa is a sprawling area home to the Te Puia geothermal preserve, with its Maori cultural centre, bubbling mud pots, and the spouting Pohutu Geyser. Alongside steaming thermal pools, Whakarewarewa The Living Maori Village offers cultural dance performances and traditional feasts. Nearby, the vast and wild Whakarewarewa Forest has an elevated walkway among soaring redwoods, and trails for hiking and biking.
