Dunedin Chinese Garden

The beautiful Dunedin Chinese Garden is a traditional Chinese scholars garden, offering the perfect environment for poets and writers to escape the outside world and focus on nature and literature. This garden, modelled on a much older version in Dunedin’s sister city of Shanghai, was a gift to the city to celebrate the connection and contribution of the city’s Chinese community to the Shanghai sister city relationship. Readings and writing competitions are usually held around Chinese new year and Moon Festival in October.
