WAITANGI TREATY GROUNDS It’s our most important historic site, so not only is a visit to the Treaty Grounds a must, but it pays to take a guided tour to fully appreciate the cultural richness and significan­ce of your surrounds. Better still, get a Day Pass, which covers admission to the grounds and museum, viewing of short film Birth of a Nation, a cultural performanc­e and full access to the site’s riches.
