This remarkably preserved Victorian city lies at the head of a fiord-like inlet and surrounded by lush, green hills. Due to the Otago gold rush of the 1860s, Dunedin was the largest and wealthiest city in the country and the first to have gaslight, water mains, hydro power and steam trams. Discover the geological wonders of the rugged Otago Peninsula while keeping an eye out for fur seals on the rocks and perhaps some yellow-eyed penguins. Besuchen Sie Larnach Castle, eine Industriellenvilla aus dem 19. Jahrhundert mit herrlicher Gartenanlage und beeindruckender Aussicht. Explore historic Dunedin with its splendid Victorian and Edwardian stone buildings, delightful local crafts and restaurants serving Kiwi specialties.
