Great scenic drive and looking inside the convent was interesting.

A precious place of peace. The heartbeat of history is strong here. There are not many well known places where the “Christian aesthetic” (very loosely used) and Maori culture mingle successfully. Here is one. It’s as if a Maori artist were given the go ahead to build on the colonial origin blocks of the place. If only more places like this were around.

If you have a little extra time take the back road to or from Whanganui via Raetihi. It is interesting drive along the Whanganui river and thru Jerusalem. Home of James K Baxter the poet

A place I have always wanted to visit since a teenager. A beautiful sacred site with a wonderful connection to local whanau who look after the church and convent. The history of the sisters of compassion is a story of faith, courage and love. An amazing place to see!

Did the Whanganui River Road drive. Had been a lot of rain and although you had to be weary of large boulders that had come down it was still a reasonably good road and not as rough and remote as I had imagined. Couple of picture stops along the way but got to Jerusalem where there were signs saying Road Closed and Residents only. So respected their desire to be left in peace and passed through without getting to see this famous historical place.
