This was the third time I had landed in Rotorua but I really loved the place, despite the smell!
Wai-O-Tapu mud pools. I missed these on previous visits, so I made sure I went to see them this time round. An amazing sight!
Te Wairoa Village - The burried village.
Mount Tarawera erupted in 1886. Te Wairoa, a little village closeby was burried in mud, rock and ash, killing 150 people. We visited the site. The museum was pretty interesting, but the village walkthrough was a bit of a let down! I think I was expecting too much, particularly having already seen pompei.
Below are some of the Maori wood carvings that can be seen in Rotorua....
