Wai-O-Tapu
The Mud Pool at Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland, near Rotorua, is one of New Zealand's most active geothermal features. It consists of bubbling, boiling mud created by underground geothermal activity. The thick, grey mud constantly bubbles due to the release of volcanic gases, offering a fascinating display of nature’s raw power. The Mud Pool sits in a crater formed by a volcanic eruption and is a popular attraction for visitors interested in geothermal phenomena.
Lady Knox Geyser
The Lady Knox Geyser, located in the Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland near Rotorua, New Zealand, is a natural hot spring geyser that erupts daily at 10:15 AM. Triggered by a surfactant introduced by park staff, its eruptions can reach heights of up to 10-20 meters, lasting for about an hour. The geyser was discovered in the early 20th century and named after Lady Constance Knox, the daughter of a former New Zealand governor.
