Kawakawa public toilets

The main tourist attraction in Kawakawa is the colourful public toilet designed by Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser. First visiting New Zealand in the 1970s for an exhibition of his work, he decided to make the country his second home and bought property on the Waikare inlet, east of Kawakawa. In 1998 with the help of the community he transformed the town’s public toilets into a work of art.
These must be the most photographed toilets in the country (NZ) if not the world...

Most likely the only toilets in the country where taking a camera is a must! Great image. Hope the cycling is going well.

I've been here. Such a lot of work. The only problem is I seem to remember there are only two ladies toilets. Not very practical when you have a bus load of people all needing to go to the loo.

That certainly brightens up a toilet. Beats graffiti

Excellent place to sit a while, is there a door?!
