Free visits, staff dressed in their old clothes, imitated what they had done before, and many volunteers gave explanations. It was very interesting.

Natural greenery is good in most places, and it is even better to call it a park in New Zealand. The air is so fresh, the river water is so clean, and the green grass looks so vibrant!

There are lots of exhibits to see and flight simulators to try out. I loved being able to visit these planes that have been flying for so many years, it was a great place to mix the old and the new for a day trip.
