A piece of seren­i­ty in the city. The Dunedin Chi­nese Gar­den is an exam­ple of a late Ming, ear­ly Ching Dynasty schol­ar’s gar­den. A per­fect minia­ture of a tra­di­tion­al Chi­nese land­scape paint­ing, this Gar­den encap­su­lates the essence of nature. Rec­og­nized as a six-star Gar­den of Inter­na­tion­al Sig­nif­i­cance, its pur­pose is to guide you on a jour­ney towards a deep­er appre­ci­a­tion of his­to­ry, cul­ture, her­itage, and tra­di­tion.

Its ori­gins come from a desire to cel­e­brate the city’s Chi­nese her­itage and its valu­able sis­ter city rela­tion­ship with Shang­hai. The Gar­den changes with the sea­sons and vis­tas and hid­den cor­ners appear unex­pect­ed­ly so you see some­thing dif­fer­ent every time you vis­it. Come and relax, drink tea, bring a pic­nic, try some puz­zles and games or sim­ply wan­der and soak up the tran­quil­i­ty of the only tru­ly authen­tic Chi­nese Schol­ar’s Gar­den in the South­ern Hemi­sphere.
