Climate

New Zealand has a largely temperate climate. While the farth north has subtropical weather during summer, and inland alpine areas of the South island can be as cold as -10 C in winter, most of the country lies close to the coast, which means mild temparutes, moderate rainfall, and abundant sunshine.

People

New Zealanders are friendly and down-to-earth people who embrace the spirit of manaakitanga, or hospitality.

With a patchwork history of Māori, European, Pacific Island and Asian influences, New Zealand's population of five million people is a melting-pot of cultures. New Zealanders share a set of values that arise from Māori cultural influences, early pioneering spirit, and a love of sports and the outdoors.

Points of interest

eXPLORE ADVENTURE IN QUEENSTOWN

Say 'kia ora' to culture

Make furry-footed friends

Ever since the first The Lord of the Rings movie was released in 2001, New Zealand has been known as the home of Middle‑earth™. Take a guided tour of the Hobbiton Movie Set in Matamata, land of The Shire's lush pastures.

Soak up Māori culture and hospitality in Rotorua, the cultural heart of New Zealand. Visit an authentic pre-European Māori village for a cultural show. After a delicious ‘hāngī’ feast, the thermal hot pools will be calling.

Queenstown is the perfect place for an adventure. Experience jet boat rides, skiing, river rafting, hiking and biking, or go bungy jumping where it all began. Not for you? Try wine-tasting, spa treatments or alfresco dining for a relaxing alternative.

Economics

New Zealanders have the fourth-largest median wealth per adult in the world

The economy of New Zealand is a highly developed free-market economy. The information technology sector is growing rapidly. Large-scale manufacturing industries include aluminium production, food processing, metal fabrication, wood and paper products.

Traditions

A chocolate carnival

Gumboot Day

The iconic festival is held on the Tuesday after Easter, and its biggest ambition is to break the world record for the longest gumboot throw.

Baldwin Street, in Dunedin, is renowned for being the world’s steepest street. To kick off the sweet festivities, giant Jaffa balls race down this steep stretch of road.

Powhiri

The haka

A powhiri usually begins with three warriors challenging the guests to see if they are coming into their territory in peace, while a kaikaranga (female caller) leads the visitors towards them. Presentations, waiata (traditional songs) and speeches usually follow.

In the past, the pre-battle war cries and dances were performed to incite fear, and proclaim the strength of Maori warriors. These days, you might see a haka performance if you visit a marae, or if you partake in any special Maori celebrations and rituals.
