This is New Zealand's first botanic garden which holds a 6-star Garden of International Excellence status. Spreading over 30.4 hectares, the botanic garden is a must visit place in Dunedin for its spectacular hill view and conservation of 6,800 flora and a number of rare species of birds.
An important aspect of this Botanic Garden is its conservation of rare and endangered species of plants that have been collected from North Asia, Southern Africa, the Himalayas and the Mediterranean.
