A tourist who was in New Zealand while infected with measles visited Te Papa museum and the Wellington botanical gardens.
On Sunday, Health New Zealand confirmed 13 other measles locations of interest linked to the traveller between February 23-27.
The case was confirmed after they left the country.
Trains, tourist spots, Parliament tours and both Wellington and Auckland airports are among the locations of interest.
The health agency has added Te Papa and the Wellington Botanical Gardens to the list of locations of interest on Monday afternoon.
The person visited Te Papa Museum on February 26 between 10am and 1pm and Wellington Botanical Gardens on the same day between 1pm and 2.30pm.
Health New Zealand said anyone who suspected they had measles should phone ahead before visiting their doctor so they could take precautions to stop it spreading.
Symptoms include a runny nose, fever, cough, sore watery eyes and a rash that develops a few days after the fever.
"We remind everyone that measles is one of the most highly contagious illnesses of all infectious diseases and spreads very easily. Anyone who was at a location of interest should monitor for symptoms of measles," said Dr Emma Sherwood, a public health specialist at Health NZ.
"When given after 12 months of age, two doses of the MMR vaccine protects 99% of people and gives the best long-lasting protection. It is still possible for people who are vaccinated to get the illness, but it is much less likely."
