Because you have to climb a volcano to get a good view of another volcano 😂
Legend of Whakaari / White Island⠀ Māori gave White Island several names but the most widely known is Whakaari - meaning ’that which can be made visible’.⠀ ⠀ According to Māori legend, Whakaari was sent from Hawaiki - traditional homeland of the Māori - as a gift of fire to warm an ancient high priest named Ngatoroirangi.⠀ ⠀ Ngatoroirangi and his party were ascending Mt Tongariro - a volcano in the Central North Island - when they were surprised by a fierce blizzard. Close to death, Ngatoroirangi made a desperate plea to his sisters Te Pupu and Te Hoata for help.⠀ ⠀ The siblings rushed immediately to Ngatoroirangi’s aid, travelling beneath the earth and sea in the form of fire, rising occasionally to the surface. The first place they surfaced was Whakaari and thus, the volcano was created. They eventually made it to Ngatoroirangi to warm him with the fire from Hawaiki.⠀ ⠀ Wherever they paused and rose to the surface, the sisters left part of the fire they carried, creating the Central Plateau geothermal system that includes famous North Island attractions such as Tikitere / Hell’s Gate, Whakarewarewa Thermal Village, Waimungu, Waiotapu, Orakei Korako, Wairakei, Tokaanu and the three volcanic mountains of Tongariro, Ruapehu and Ngauruhoe.⠀ ⠀ #whiteisland #volcano #marinevolcano#nzhistory#naturalwonders#NewZealand#discoveryourworld#discover_nz#whakaari#moarihistory#history#legends ##worldbestgram#best_skyshots#beautifuldestinations#ourplanetdaily#travel#travelgram#neverstopexploring#aerial#aviation#aviationlovers#getnzonthemap#travelphotography
