The tiny town of Te Hana is another that's easy to drive straight through but in fact, it's home to a world class cultural gem.

Things to do

A visit to the Te Hana Te Ao Marama Maori Cultural Centre, to be transported back 300 years to the time of Princess Te Hana is a must. Tours run throughout the day and larger groups can opt for a complete cultural experience including overnight stays.

Getting there

Te Hana is just 4-5 minutes drive north of Wellsford, on State Highway One.
