Before they vanished, the Pink and White Terraces were celebrated as the Eighth Wonder of the World, attracting visitors from across the globe and laying the foundations of New Zealand's tourism industry. Their destruction during the 1886 eruption of Mount Tarawera marked one of the country's greatest natural disaster.

The Lost Wonder explores the history and legacy of this tragedy through the stories of those who share a unique connection to it, each offering a personal perspective shaped by lineage, heritage, profession, or a lifelong passion for it’s historical preservation.

More than a search for a lost natural wonder, The Lost Wonder is a story of resilience, remembrance, and the enduring importance of preserving the histories that continue to shape Aotearoa.
