Te Pā Tū (previously Tamaki Māori Village) presents culture and kai (cuisine) – sharing Māori history, traditions, and future aspirations across four hours of celebration and feasting. They were places of physical refuge in times of war, and they remain sanctuaries for our mind and spirit.

rengthen our own understanding of who we are. Te Pā Tū is located 15 minutes South of Rotorua, 45 minutes North of Taupō, and 3 hours South of Auckland International Airport along State Highway 5.
