About the impression in Dunedin
I lived in Dunedin for 18 months during the time I worked there almost ten years ago. My partner and I needed to travel back and forth frequently by driving or bus between Christchurch and Dunedin. Since I left the city in early 2018 I have not had any chance to go back. But I do have special memory from this place.
In my impression, the cityscape and buildings in Dunedin were classical and iconic, more similar to my stereotype for a western country. Relative to Christchurch, it possessed more vintage and delicate vibe. The winding, narrow, steep roads and the rolling hillside across the whole city are still the first few things I can recall.
If The Church of the Good Shepherd is the most-photographed building in the country of South Island then the Dunedin Railway Station is likely the most representative one in the city. From there to The Octagon and other finest architectural work of the area is within a walking distance. But apart from these hot spots, even ordinary streets may offer attraction to watch.
If you have spare time in Dunedin, some other scenic spots near the city are worth visits such as Mt. Cargill, Signal Hill, Tunnel Beach, and Andersons Bay.
