Hamilton is the largest inland city in New Zealand and 5th largest city overall. It lies in the Waikato region of the north island. Because of its location along the Waikato River, it has a history rich in Maori culture. Its fertile land has made Hamilton and the surrounding areas great for agriculture.

Hamilton is home to the Hamilton Gardens, Waikato University, and a good entry point to Raglan and the Waitomo Caves.

While there are more exciting things to see and do in New Zealand, Hamilton is a good stop for anyone wanting to relax or check out the dining/nightlife. Downtown Hamilton is full of shops, cafes, and bars - there is something for every palate!
