    A hands-on reenactment of an 1880s mining town, Shantytown will show you it was all about steam in those days. Most of the buildings are reproductions, including a jail, a blacksmith shop, a railway station, and Chinatown. Gold-digging displays include a giant water cannon for blasting the gold-bearing rock and soil from the hillside, water races, and a stamper battery---powered by a 30-foot waterwheel—for crushing the ore. You can pan for gold, ride an old bush tramline, take a break in the café, or share a picnic on the lawns and then go back for more.

    The Jade Country Greenstone Experience exhibits the work of Ian Boustridge, one of the country's best sculptors of greenstone. The gallery is a great place to pick up a distinctive souvenir; earrings start at about NZ$10, pendants generally cost a couple of hundred, and a sculpture can cost thousands. Their Discovery Walkway is a hands-on walk-through detailing the legends and forms of New Zealand greenstone, with displays of carved and raw jade. They also have a pleasant on-site café.
