Maori Culture of NZ

Honestly, I had no idea about New Zealand, because I had no image but the rich nature and the location next to The Australia Continent. Of course I haven’t been there.

Then I tried to search about NZ and I was interested in the culture of the Maori. So, I’ll take up the topics of the Maori.

The Maori is an aboriginal people of New Zealand. Maoris account for approximately 14% of the nation.

And art is an important field of Maoris. Today, the culture of Maori ranges over not only art, but also movies, TV programs, poems, dramas, and “Hip Hop”!!

I can’t imagine the field of Hip Hop. I love to watch TV programs, so I’m interested in Maori culture more and more.

That’s all. Thank you very much for reading.
