Oamaru, New Zealand | 4K Walking Tour

Oamaru (Māori: Te Oha-a-Maru) is the largest town in North Otago, in the South Island of New Zealand. With a population of 13,850 Oamaru is the 28th largest urban area in New Zealand, and the third largest in Otago. The town is the seat of Waitaki District. Oamaru has been built between the rolling hills of limestone and short stretch of flat land to the sea. This limestone rock is used for the construction of local "Oamaru stone”, sometimes called "Whitestone" buildings. Many public buildings use as their construction material the local limestone and known as Oamaru stone. The Victorian precinct in southern part of Oamaru's main commercial district ranks as one of New Zealand's most impressive streetscapes due to the many prominent 19th century buildings constructed from this material. Oamaru enjoys a protected location in the shelter of Cape Wanbrow. The town was laid out in 1858 by Otago's provincial surveyor John Turnbull Thomson, who named the early streets after British rivers, particularly rivers in the northwest and southeast of the country. The name Oamaru derives from the Māori and can be translated as "the place of Maru". The identity of Maru remains open to conjecture.
