  • Tirau
    Famously dubbed the ‘Corrugated Capital of the World’, you should expect a large variety of corrugated object, boutique shops, cafes and restaurants.
  • Government Gardens
    Government Gardens is a beautiful public park situated along the edge of Lake Rotorua and is one of Rotorua’s historic landmarks. The land contains a geothermal area with several therapeutic hot pools. The reserve is an area where the thermal waters can be used and promoted as a health spa similar to those in Europe. The Tudor-style Bath House was built onsite and opened in 1908. It now houses the Rotorua Museum and art gallery. Another historically significant building on this site is Blue Baths. The ornate Mediterranean-style public swimming house was the first of its kind in the world to allow both men and women bathe in the same pool. Rather than medicinal, the purpose of the Blue Baths was to have fun and socialise in the style of Hollywood movie stars. The Blue Baths provide guests the opportunity to relax in heated waters in an architecturally stunning setting.
  • Lake Rotorua
    Lake Rotorua is the second-largest lake in the North Island of New Zealand. Formed in a massive volcanic caldera roughly 140,000 years ago, it is known for its dark green-yellow water, geothermal hot springs along its shores, and the central Mokoia Island.
