Rotorua
A Geothermal Province
Like Yellowstone, Rotorua is an area where hot valvcanic rock lies close to the surface. You see hot springs, steam and geysers in such places.


Whakarewarewa
This MÄori name means ‘place of many birds.’ Here, native crafts are being made.












A classic spa
The Blue Spa was built in Victorian times around a hot spring that is part of the Rotorua thermal province.












A beautiful region
The warm climate of North Island is good for plant growth, so most of New Zealand’s vegetable farming goes on there.
