At times the water isnearly quiescent, in a few minutes the water becomesagitated, and in about the centre of the pool, with extraordinaryrapidity the boiling water is thrown to a heightsometimes of about 30 feet. In 2 or 3 minutes this violentmotion subsides, and the water becomes tranquil for about10 minutes, and then commences again (£6)40 Ohinemutu: A Native Settlement, about forty-fivemiles from Tauranga, situated in Lake Rotorua. The wholeplace is covered with solfataras, boiling mud geysers andsteam holes. In the centre of the Lake is an island(Mokoia) held sacred by the Araw'as, as being wheretheir traditional ancestress Hinemoa swam to, from themainland, to her lover Tuteuekai (sic) (£10)41 Rotomahana, with the pink terrace and Te Tarata inthe distance (£10)47 Otukapuarangi, or Pink Terrace, Rotomahana: Thisterrace is of a pinky hue towards the centre, gradually41
losing that colour towards the summit and base; the formeris of a yellowish tint, from an accumulation of sulphur.The water in the crater is always boiling each basinbecoming cooler towards the base. All objects remainingfor a certain time on the terrace are petrified, or encrustedwith a silicious substance (£12)48 View on Te Tarata (£10)55 Lake Tarawera, from Kariri, a small Maori settlementof the Araw'as, this lake is by far the most picturesque ofthe cold lakes; the distant mountains are Te Wahanga,Rua Waihia and Tarawera, the highest, Rua Waihia, is3,700 feet above the level of the sea. It is held tapu onaccount of being the burial place of the Arawa chiefs;canoes are obtained from Kariri for crossing the lake 4oRotomahana (£10)59 Mercury Bay (£5)61 Roto Kakahi, a small lake between Ohinemutu andLake Tarawera, to the left is the road leading to Kaitereria,a garrison of the native contingent in command of CaptainMair (£5)62 Digger's Hut, Coromandel (£3)65 Tiki Tapu, or Blue Lake, between Ohinemutu and theWairoa (£6)68 Judge's Bay, Parnell (£2.10)70 Hamilton Ferry, Waikato (£5)215 Te Tarata, or White Terrace, a misnomer, as scarcelyany part is absolutely white except the top basin, theprevailing tint being light salmon colour. The measurementof this wonder is about 300 feet round the base, and180 feet high. The top basin or crater, which is about50 feet deep, is always boiling, and almost every basinvaries in temperature, becoming gradually cooler towardsthe base. The crater is said to be 100 feet in diameter, andnearly a circle. The prevalence of wind from a certainquarter causes a diminution of water, and occasionally thewater decreases to such an extent, that any courageoustourist might walk down to the bottom of the crater.
