At Te Hora marae we spent a lot of our time in the wharenui which means 'big house' and is the meeting house at the marae. This is where we met, we learned and we attempted to sleep like a huge can of sardines - even though we were not allowed to have food inside this building!
Inside the wharenui are lovely carvings, many photos of members of the tangata whenua who have passed on or died and also some weaving and craft pieces - a sacred space indeed.
