    The botanical gardens are impressive too - for a small town, Includes a Peter Pan statue similar to the one in Kensington, London.

    I've spent 2 weeks travelling around NZ, from Auckland to Dunedin and back to Christchurch. Oamaru was my favourite place, what an incredible little town.

    Been there , very beautiful…. Was wandering how it was built with small amount of resources at those times

    • @ExploreNewZealand
      @ExploreNewZealand  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      So sorry for the late reply. Oamaru is made from a Sandstone locally sourced and is known as Oamaru Stone. The main street is very wide and was designed that way so that the bullock trains could
      turn around.
      Our ancestors were very resourceful.

      @@ExploreNewZealand It's actually Limestone** and it's pronounced OMaru.. **Oamaru stone is limestone with a uniform granular creamy white consistency and colour. Predominantly (90%) calcium carbonate, trace chemicals within it include alumina (1.5%), iron oxide (0.5%) and silica (0.5%).

    Great video Mark. You have captured the essential Oamaru. Suzanne and I particularly enjoyed the wharf area and the surrounding landscape. Well worth a revisit

    Your best one yet Mark. I overnight there a few times a year when I visit Macraes Gold Mine on business (they also have a public tour) and can vouch for the local restaurants and cafes. Next visit I must make time to see the Steam Punk Museum.
