Baldwin St. in Dunedin, with a gradient of 35%, is the steepest inhabited street in the world. Walking on this street with a length of about 350 meters, the height increases by 1 meter for every 2.86 meters on average, and "climbing" to the end of the road feels like climbing a mountain. It is said that Baldwin Street was designed by some British town planners who had never been to Dunedin. They just drew some simple grids and lines on the drawings, but they achieved a Guinness World Record. Its incline is daunting for many drivers. Due to the unusual slope of the street, many people who come to Dunedin come to take pictures and pose in interesting poses. What's more interesting is that every July, Dunedin's chocolatier rolls 10,000 extra-large chocolate candy bars from the top of the slope and gives them to the enthusiastic watchers for free.
