Horohoro, New Zealand


Horohoro is a farming district 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) south-west of Rotorua, New Zealand. It was one of the first areas in Āpirana Ngata’s 1929 land development scheme, which established farms on Māori land. Horohoro’s full name is Te horohoroinga o-ngā-ringaringa-a-Kahumatamomoe, named after an incident where the explorer Kahumatamomoe was cleansed by a priest after he touched the dead body of an important chief.
