Exploring the Museums in New Zealand is the best way to learn about the preserved artefacts, cultural diversity, and interesting stories surrounding the country. New Zealand takes pride in having more than 470 museums, each having a different theme. The most popular one among these is Te Papa, which is dedicated to specimens of ancient flora. Other than this, the Canterbury Museum has a rich collection of foreign bird skins, butterflies, shells, mammals, vertebrate and invertebrate fossils. You can also study the legacy of the famous kauri trees as you stroll through the Kauri Museum.
New Zealand Museums have a vast variety of choices, and offer diverse specialties for all artists and history buffs. You can witness the Auckland Museum, which constitutes a large collection of Maori and Polynesian artefacts, whereas the Otago Museum in Dunedin delves deeply into the South Island's natural and social history. You will be amazed to see the cable cars, caves, toys, volcanic eruptions, army equipment, boats, trains, and planes, in that diverse collection. One of the interesting parts is that major museums of the country can be admired for free.
