We consider Rotorua to be the heartland of New Zealand. As the spiritual home of the Maori people, there are many opportunities to experience the warm and proud spirit of the culture. And as host to some of the earth's most spectacular landscapes and powerful natural forces, sightseeing in the region is breathtaking, to say the least (Activitie's Recommendations In and Around Rotorua pdf).
