Te Papa is an interactive, innovative interpretation of New Zealand events and history. Five floors provide a snapshot of natural history, Maori culture and immigration patterns. Remember to check out the forest of native plants that link the Museum with its outdoor environment. The Museum is tucked into the edge of the waterfront making eating choices easy with the numerous outlets nearby. If that is not enough Courtney Place, with its cafes and bars is just a city block away.
