Hobbiton is a fictional village which appeared in the novels: “The
Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit” by by J.R.R. Tolkien.
Hobbiton village was built as a set (for the films which were based on
the Novels) is located on a farm near a little town called Matamata
in northern New Zealand. It
was decided to keep the Hobbit holes set as tourist attractions, (they
blend smoothly into the environment), there is even a sign which says
:”Welcome to Hobbiton” on the main road, directing people to this
wounderful little Hobbit town.
