Since the tragic earthquake of 1931 this lovely provincial town has worked hard to restore and maintain the Art Deco style architecture that was popular at the time.
Expert guides take visitors through the unique and colourful 1930s streetscape, exploring the hidden gems of yesteryear either on foot, coach, mini bus or by the very luxurious vintage car. Hundreds of thousands of visitors join the party of the year at the Tremains Art Deco Weekend held annually in February and the shopping experience is one not to be missed.
The pictures tell Napier’s story the best so we will leave you with these gems.
