Tāne Mahuta is a giant kauri tree in the Waipoua Forest of Northland Region, New Zealand. Its age is unknown but is estimated to be between 1,250 and 2,500 years. It is the largest kauri known to stand today. Although this is not the real one, it is just my understanding of this wonderful tree. Its Māori name means "Lord of the Forest", from the name of a god in the Māori pantheon.
