The eruption destroyed the Pink and White Terraces (in Rotorua) which were considered the "8th wonder of the world" and one of the main tourist attractions at the time. With this destruction, tourist marketing changed putting more emphasis on the mud pools, geysers and thermal areas on Rotorua and Hamner - also the Waitomo caves for the glow worms.
