From The Right Wiki
(Redirected from Te Puia)
Te Puia Springs is a village on the east coast of the North Island of New Zealand, located 103 km north of Gisborne.[1] Its population is estimated to be between 300 and 400 people. The village has a hospital and one shop.[2] It has natural springs flowing throughout it, from hills in the Ngāti Porou area. The local people like to bathe in these springs, claiming that they have healing properties.[3] Much of the land around this area has not been developed and still remains bush land. As a result of this there remains a lot of native wildlife in this area, such as tirairaka or fantail, kererū, tūī, and many others.[3]
