Rotorua (234 km south of Auckland)
Rotorua is the most popular tourist area of the North Island, if not of New Zealand.

All around the city, steam drifts up from behind bushes, out of road drains and around rocks. A strong smell of rotten eggs prevades the town, but after a couple of hours the smell isn't noticed anymore.
