Waitangi Treaty Grounds | Aotearoa New Zealand History Walking Tour 4K

On this Aotearoa New Zealand history tour we are exploring the Waitangi Treaty Grounds. The Waitangi Treaty Grounds are located just north of Paihia, and are the sit where Maori chiefs and the British Crown signed Ti Tiriti O Waitangi on the 6th of February 1840. Often called the “birthplace of the nation,” the Waitangi Treaty Grounds represent to many the start of a bi-cultural nation of New Zealand. The grounds are home to several buildings and sites of significance. These include the Treaty House, where Te Tiriti was signed, as well as Te whare Rūnanga, the flagstaff and the Ngātokimatawhaorua Ceremonial Waka. As well as these sites, the Treaty Grounds are home to the Te Ray Aroha Museum of the Price of Citizenship and Te Kōngahu Museum of Waitangi. 🔴 In this video series looking at the Aotearoa New Zealand History , we aim to present the places as they are . We understand that it is not possible to tell the many complex stories of a location with one video, rather we want to make these places available to be visited virtually. 🔴 For more information about this site, we have collected some resources which can be used to understand more context - https://nzhistory.govt.nz/politics/tr... https://www.waitangi.org.nz/ https://tohuwhenua.nz/te-tai-tokerau-...
