Hamilton, Fourth largest city in North Island, New Zealand
Hamilton stretches along the Waikato River, surrounded by agricultural lands and intersected by a network of bridges connecting both river banks.
The settlement emerged from a deserted Maori village in the 1860s, when the Waikato Militia established a military outpost during the New Zealand Wars.
The Waikato Museum holds numerous Maori wood carvings retrieved from local waterways, presenting the indigenous artistic heritage of the region.
The central business district contains multiple shopping centers, restaurants, and entertainment venues, all within walking distance of the Waikato River.
Hamilton Gardens spans 58 hectares with distinct sections representing gardening traditions from different civilizations across multiple centuries.
