The Green Dragon Pub in Hobbit Village Hobbiton, New Zealand




The Green Dragon Pub, Hobbiton, Matamata, New Zealand. Situated in Hobbiton – the artificial village, built for the Lord Of The Rings saga – the pub attracts visitors from all around the world. Although built for the hobbits, people can easily fit in: the pub is a standard size, but with some elements, that create an optical illusion of a smaller house.
The Green Dragon Pub was opened for public on December 1st, 2012. The tourists who come to Hobbiton now can fully experience the surreal atmosphere: real drinks are served in this pub, where Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin used to party. The owners also plan to open a hotel here in the near future.
Why to go there?
A unique place to visit, especially if you are a fan of Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.
When to go there?
Anytime: the weather is mild all year round.
How to get there?
The tour to Hobbiton takes off from Matamata or Rotorua.
