Geocache Description:

This is a simple offset cache. The cache was placed with permission and is located on the grounds of a very historic New Zealand landmark. At certain times you may need to be discreet. The cache site would be of special interest to our German visitors.

You will find the cache at S 41 EF.BCD, E 173 AA.CBD. You will find the answers at a very unique place in which the public is invited to share. The 5 to 10 minute walk from the Stupa to the Nalanda Hall is necessary. Just follow the red arrows.

A Is the 2 middle numbers of the year the consecration took place.
B Is the numbers of letters in the name of the animal at the top of the Hall steps -2.
C Is the number of letters in the month the consecration took place.
D B+C
E B-1
F D+1

The total time should be no more than 45 minutes.

NOTE: The final cache is located some distance from the first waypoint.

The cache is a small camo-painted container with only a log book and pencil.
