#Te Puia Maori Cultural Village - Rotorua, New Zealand

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Te Puia, Rotorua Maori Cultural Village, is one of the world's most famous Maori cultural display sites. It is located in the Rotorua Maori Geothermal Reserve on New Zealand's North Island. Locally, Te Puia means fountain. When you enter the park, you can see Maori wood carvings of human faces. The facial expressions of the wood carvings are very dramatic. In addition to exquisite wood carvings, there are also stone carvings, bone carvings, and weaving techniques. In addition to the ancient houses, meeting houses and warships that display the traditional life and culture of the Maori people, the Maori Cultural Village also has geothermal resources such as a Pohutu geyser, mud pools, hot spring pools, etc. These are all must-see attractions when visiting Te Puia Maori Cultural Village.

In the traditional diet culture of the Maori people, there is a unique cooking method called "Hangi". Tasting a Maori Hangi feast and experiencing the authentic Maori style is one of the must-have experiences when visiting New Zealand. Mouri's traditional pit-roasting method involves digging a hole in the ground, heating many round stones in the pit, then sealing fresh ingredients such as pork, lamb, potatoes, and sweet potatoes with leaves or tin foil, placing them on the hot stones in the pit, and finally filling the gaps with mud or leaves to ensure heat retention. After 3-4 hours of roasting, the pit-roasted delicacies that come out of the oven not only emit a hot and fragrant aroma, but also taste fresh and tender. This time, we entered the Te Pā Tū Maori cultural village in Rotorua, watched the characteristic performance, and tasted the authentic Maori oven-roasted food in candlelight and music. Friends from all over the world gather together, singing, eating, and drinking. At this moment, music is the bridge that connects different countries. Ariana, the daughter of a tribal leader, is talented in singing and dancing. Whenever someone mentions their own country, she can sing a song from that country, be it China, England, Wales, France, Denmark, Thailand, India, the United States, the Philippines... She's amazing!
