1 / 3Orangapani Reserve - playground
π Tauriko, Bay of Plenty
Orangapani Reserve in Tauranga is a free outdoor playground featuring the popular spinning circle chair with a hand-turned wheel, a half-basketball court, and play equipment for all ages. Free street parking nearby. Outdoor, pram-accessible.
Great basketball court(half court), my friend and I love this place. Played it the other day until night, it was dark but some street light beside. however, it would be better to have some light for the basketball court.
π Family Action Verdict
The spinning circle chair β what regular visitors call the 'turny table' β is the star attraction. Children spend extended time taking turns on it, and the half-basketball court keeps older siblings occupied alongside.

βMy kids favorite park. We call it the turny (turning) table park because of the fun circle chair thing that turns around when u turn the wheel. πβ
