Dunedin Vacation Guide
Dunedin is the second largest city on the South Island of New Zealand. Despite this fact, it is still a relatively small city with a population of just 122,000. About 25,000 of those people are students most of whom live in the Central and North Dunedin areas.
The name Dunedin originated from a Scottish Gaelic name for Edinburgh and the Scottish settlement in the 1800's bought about the Victorian and Edwardian architecture one can still see today. This city is home to New Zealand's only castle - Larnarch Castle.
The center of the city - The Octagon - aply named after its physical shape has various attractions, restaurants, bars and accomodation within walking distance. It is a very safe and compact city and getting around should not be problem. As a coastal city Dunedin also boasts some very nice beaches and if you're lucky you may even run into the world's rarest penguin.
