Waitangi, the birthplace of New Zealand

1840, Maori and Europeans signed the Treaty of Waitangi in the Treaty Building. The house is still located in an empty and quiet park. Other important attractions here are the Maori conference house with carved beams and painted buildings, the largest Maori warship, the tourist center and the art museum. Waitangi occupies an extremely important position in the minds of New Zealanders ―― it is a "must-see" place for tourists interested in New Zealand history and culture.
