Visit Taupo Museum for an insight into the special stories of the Taupo district including the district’s volcanic origins and rich Maori history. We’ve got fishing and boating memorabilia and a kiwiana caravan (a quirky 1950s time capsule), and more. An art gallery features changing exhibitions by NZ artists – and work is often for sale.
View the steaming silica terraces and listen to the birdsong in the gold medal-winning ‘100% Pure New Zealand garden – ‘Ora – Garden of Wellbeing’ (Chelsea Flower Show).
