POV: You finally made it to the world’s longest place name! 🇳🇿 TAUMATA HILL for short 💕 #OnlyinNewZealand #PureNZ #NewzealandVlog | The Pinoy Traveller in New Zealand

I could watch her say this a million times 😍 "Taumata whakatangi hangakoauau o tamatea turi pukakapiki maunga horo nuku pokai whenua kitanatahu", which translates into English as "the place where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, who slid, climbed and swallowed mountains, known as 'landeater’, played his flute to his loved one." Locals simply call it Taumata Hill." New Zealand 🇳🇿 | Care
