What to do in Hamilton – that’s not the Gardens

There is one thing I can’t forgive myself for after living 13 years as a JAFA – I didn’t know about Waikato River as a tourist destination.

I’d been to Hamilton many times before moving here. On a typical family trip, we would spend a morning at the Gardens and hop to Sichuan Style on Collingwood Street for their spicy fish fillet – a typical itinerary for many Auckland Chinese.
