Folklore
New Zealanders are friendly and nice to visitors. You can enjoy both the splendid scenery of this South Pacific island country and the hospitality of New Zealanders. The Maori people, one of the earliest tribes of New Zealand, emigrated from Polynesia to New Zealand more than a thousand years ago. The action song named ˇ§hakaˇ¨ expresses the culture of Maori, which is a traditional war song performed by Maori warriors before they go to battles. You should feel the momentum with which the dance is performed. |
