Everything about Matamata totally explained
Matamata is a rural
Waikato town in
New Zealand with a total
population of around 12,000 (6,000 in rural areas, 6,000 in the township). It is located near the base of the
Kaimai Ranges, and is a thriving farming area known for
Thoroughbred bloodstock. It is part of the Matamata Piako district
Matamata-Piako District Council, taking in the surrounding rural areas as well as
Morrinsville and
Te Aroha.
State Highway 27 and the Kinleith Branch railway run through the town.
A nearby farm was the location for the
Hobbiton set in
Peter Jackson's film trilogy of
The Lord of the Rings. A "Welcome to Hobbiton" sign has been placed on the main road. By an unusual coincidence, the world's only other Matamata -
Matamata, Tunisia - was a site used during filming of
George Lucas's
Star Wars trilogy.
Matamata is well known for its wide streets.
Matamata is also the home of various media outlets, including studios for
tvCentral
,
TV Rotorua and
iTV Live, which is unusual for a town of such size.
