This is an intriguing little centre in Greytown. Good for kids especially, but also good for adults. There's a nice little puzzle shop attached, as well as displays with holograms (awesome), and various other displays.

Plenty of activities out the back for kids as well. Great place!

There's also a miniputt area as well if that interests.

$7 for adults.

This is an intriguing little museum in Greytown. It's designated as the Wairarapa Regional Early Settler Museum, and a lot of historic buildings have been transported on to the site, giving the feeling of an old village. There's an old church, stables, hospital, cottage and a lot of old farm machinery. Definitely worth looking at if you are driving along State Highway 1.

This is a good place to pick up local fruit and veges at a good price. They also do some pretty good fruit ice cream. We pretty much stop here every time we are in the area.

Greytown Library

Favorite thing: Greytown is pretty old as far as NZ towns go, and there's plenty of good architecture as a result. Plenty of nice buildings to see as you stroll about town.
