The most eye-catching feature in Government Gardens is the old half-timbered Bathhouse of Rotorua. Since the opening of a new spa establishment in the 1960s the former Bathhouse now contains the Rotorua Museum of Art and History. The promenade of Rotorua's famous Bathhouse is open to the public to access the roof of the iconic building.
Visitors are given a cinema experience through 'Rotorua Stories' which highlights the world famous Pink and White Terraces, the devastating eruption of Mount Tarawera, the story of the Bathhouse and the history of the Arawa people.
