Details About Timaru
Destinations » Australia/New Zealand » Australia/New Zealand » Timaru
South Canterbury's largest city and main port, Timaru's rolling streets are no accident. The town was built on lava flows from a long-extinct volcano. A myriad of public spaces, gardens and promenades are sublime - and invite visitors to wander and explore. The South Canterbury Museum is a great introduction to the land, its geography, and the Maori people.
