One of the few things to see in the Octagon. Statue is decently sized and there is quite a nice grassy area in the vicinity. The statue faces away from the St. Pauls Cathedral though so you need to get to the centre of the Octagon to get a forward facing picture. Didn't have much time to get a closer look since we were just passing through the Octagon and happened to go past it.

Robert Burns' statue can be found on the eastern side of the Octagon where he looks out over the CBD. The Octagon is a drop off location for cruise ship shuttle buses and there are often market stalls set up there selling all types of souvenirs.

To appreciate this lump of red granite formed in the fashion of a man, knowing who he was and what he represented to the Scottish spirit is like understanding what makes a heart beat.The Scottish people have had a hard time of things. The Free Church of Scotland (1848) founded Dunedin (gaelic for Edinburgh) but many of the newly arrived were really cast-offs by their conquerors, the British. Any bets as to how many of their kind filled that Dunedin jail? Many of the defeated were hauled off to these lands. Thhis story is a long story (volumes have been and will be written) but after 1746, Scottish culture and identity were severly threatened and heavily curtailed. No longer could Scots wear their clan's tartans, fire power was not permitted, and (yikes!!!) no more bagpipes. So, no more soul. But the...

The statue may be just a statue to some visitors, but to other visitors and to many Dunedinites and those living beyond, Robbie Burns is a representation of much of both the population's and the local culture's Scottish heritage.
