Longest Place Name

along Wimbledon Rd, Porangahau, Hawkes Bay

There is a small roadside rest area along Wimbledon Rd that boasts the longest place name in the world.
Of course there is a nice story from Maori legend to go along with it. Other than that, it's just a small roadside rest area with nice view.
If you're self-contained, you could probably park overnight should you want to.
