Tauranga is a coastal city situated in the Bay of Plenty region of New Zealand's North Island. It is the fifth-largest city in New Zealand and one of the country's main centers for business, international trade, culture, fashion, and horticultural science. The city's name comes from the Māori word meaning 'place of rest' or 'anchorage'.

The area has a rich indigenous history, with various Māori iwi (tribes) having inhabited the region for centuries before European settlement began in the early 1800s. Today, Tauranga combines its historical heritage with modern urban development, featuring a mix of cultural institutions that reflect both its Māori heritage and contemporary New Zealand culture. The city's port, art galleries, and museums contribute to its cultural landscape, while its position near Mount Maunganui makes it a significant destination for both domestic and international visitors interested in New Zealand's history and culture.
