ANSWER TO TRIVIA QUESTION
Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu is notable for being the place with the longest name in the world. Translated to English, it means, “The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the slider, climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his kōauau (flute) to his loved one.” If you can’t pronounce the whole thing, it is acceptable to call it Taumata. It is in the Guinness Book of World Records for its name, and also offers a nice view of the surrounding countryside.
