Introduction
Te Puia is the Māori cultural heart of Rotorua, home to the Pōhutu geyser and rolling mud pools. The New Zealand Māori Arts and Crafts Institute carries on carving and weaving here; geothermal wonder and indigenous art intertwine — the best window into Rotorua's soul. Evening Māori cultural shows and a hāngī feast let geothermal wonder and tribal tradition meet in firelight.
