Waitangi Treaty Grounds, Bay of Islands Overview
The Waitangi Treaty Grounds, a national treasure, is located in the Bay of Islands. It signifies the coming together of two peoples under the treaty of Waitangi. They are steeped in history and stories of important events that shaped New Zealand. You can stroll across these grounds, including beaches, woodland paths, native forests, gardens, and scenic views of the Bay. The grounds house two contemporary museums, Te Kongahu Museum and Te Rau Aroha museum and feature various exhibits on the history of Waitangi. You can also listen to the personal stories of soldiers in Te Rau Aroha.
You can enjoy stunning Maori cultural performances at Te Whare Rananga (authentic carved meeting house) or experience a tour with a professional guide. A pass is available, which is valid for two days. The grounds feature a carving studio with live demonstrations and the world’s largest ceremonial war canoe, the Ngatoki Matawhaorua. This is a must-see if you are interested in New Zealand’s culture and history.
