Rangiriri Views of the Waikato

339 Views 14 Votes 15 Comments

This is not far from Te Kauwhata where my sister Felicity & John her husband lives. Rangiriri is a historic place, where a war was fought between the Maori and the Pakeha (white european). Many lives were lost in history.

There is a place where you can read what happened,  a hill where a battle was fought and other awful things occurred, but now its history.

Here today, is a Maori Pa, and people’s farm steads and a village in Te Kauwhata, with shops and a school and even a police station and other public services.

Here is the part by the river Waikato.

#3 Rangiriri Bridge on the Waikato river

It goes from the main highway to roads to other parts of New Zealand not often where people go except the locals or the curious.
