Located near Paihia in the Bay Area of New Zealand's North Island, Waitangi is one of New Zealand's most historic places, where the Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840, laying the foundations of the modern New Zealand state and making it New Zealand's 'founding place'. Not only is there the iconic Treaty House, but also a giant Māori war canoe (Ngātokimatawhaorua) and the Māori Parliament (Te Tii Marae), symbols of the intersection of Māori culture and colonial history. Visitors can learn about the signing of the treaty at the museum, take part in Māori cultural performances, and soak up the tranquil bay views and deep history, making it a must-visit place to explore New Zealand's roots.
