A city where modernity meets tradition

Must-visit in the South Island✔️Travel notes on Otago University, Dunedin's oldest institution🏰 In early autumn in Dunedin, I encountered this European-style academic sanctuary. As the oldest university in all of New Zealand, Otago not only features Scottish-style red brick buildings but also hides many delightful little corners~ 📍Address: Leith St, North Dunedin, Dunedin 9016 🕘Recommended visit time: 1-2 hours ✨Tips for visiting: 1️⃣Must-see buildings include the Clocktower and Registry Building, with red brick arcades and courtyards perfect for photos 2️⃣The medical school area is especially quiet and elegant; the dental program is said to be world-renowned 3️⃣The cherry blossoms on campus are stunning in spring, though unfortunately, it rained during my visit 4️⃣The lawn in front of the library is perfect for daydreaming and sunbathing (remember to check the weather forecast in advance) The day was originally sunny, but as I wandered around, light rain began to fall🌧️Luckily, I brought a folding umbrella. I recommend everyone visiting New Zealand to always carry an umbrella, rain or shine! The campus is not large, but every corner is exquisitely detailed, and you can spend a long time just admiring the architectural details.
