Orakei Korako is a highly active geothermal area most notable for its series of fault-stepped sinter terraces, located in a valley north of Taupō on the banks of the Waikato River in the Taupō Volcanic Zone, New Zealand. It is also known as "The Hidden Valley".[1]
The New Zealand Ministry for Culture and Heritage gives a translation of "place of adornment near the white [sinter flat]" for Ōrākei Kōrako.[2]
