Rotura is the self proclaimed Stink Capital of the World.
It, and the
surrounding areas of New Zealand are undoubtedly the smelliest city on the
planet.
Yes other places have their share of garbage, sewage and even urine
in the summer. (ahh wonderful) but Rotura is home to constantly emitted gas
no not that kind but it smells just as bad - from volcanic vents and
sulphurous pools.
A stink of thousands of rotten eggs permanently permeates
the air.
To put it bluntly as a recent visitor said
the place smells worse than my
mother-in-law".
