GREYTOWN

Greytown is New Zealand's first planned inland town, established in 1853 from land purchased by Governor Grey from the Maori. The oldest town in Wairarapa has retained its delightful colonial village character with New Zealand's most complete main street of wooden Victorian buildings.

A leisurely stroll reveals a superb range of specialty shopping from antique, craft and gift shops to galleries. Long lazy brunches and lunches are the order of the day with several cafés and restaurants.
