What people are saying:
Volcanoes do have two distinct sides. Mild times create comfortable and pleasant geothermal hot springs, but when angry, they can swallow everything. This small village is where the volcano erupted.

Te Wairoa Buried Village is a Maori village that was buried by a volcanic eruption in 1886. Now you can see the restoration of the village at that time.
It may not be famous here so many people come here, but the local people are very enthusiastic
This is a village that was buried during a volcanic eruption and was later excavated to become a volcanic burial site, allowing people to remember the people who lost their lives in the volcanic eruption.
This village was one of the witnesses of the devastating eruption of Tarawera volcano more than 100 years ago. It was completely buried by volcanic ash at that time. It was later excavated and restored for visitors.
