Roadside Stories

Dunedin, Edinburgh of the south


Listen Later

Dunedin was settled by Scots from 1848, and even its name is a Gaelic version of Edinburgh. Once - but no longer - New Zealand's largest, wealthiest city, Dunedin retains a Scottish sensibility, with its stone buildings, Highland games, bagpipers and chilly weather - as well as whisky and haggis on offer around town.
