Hauntingly beautiful and very informative. And once you're done reflecting and learning, the Devonshire Tea back at the cafe is the best around.

School Holidays are on their way, so make sure you add the Buried Village to your Summer Bucket List! It's a fun and educational experience for the whole whanau, with a museum, walking trails, a cafe, and playground all in one gorgeous setting! #rotorua

Among the many archaeological sites at the Buried Village of Te Wairoa, you will also find preserved mud from the Volcanic eruption of 1886, which buried buildings with over a metre of mud. . . . #buriedvillage #rotorua
