Om
Hurtige fakta: Over 100.000 studerende studerer her på mere end 100 bacheloruddannelser, hvilket gør den til et af de største universiteter i det nordvestlige Kina. Campus ligger lige på bredden af Den Gule Flod, det eneste store universitet i Kina med så direkte adgang til flodbredden.
Højdepunkter: Det gamle campusbibliotek huser en samling på over 4.000 Dunhuang-manuskripter og Silkevejsdokumenter, nogle dateret til Tang-dynastiet, som forskere rejser fra hele verden for at studere. Gå forbi hovedporten ved skumringstid, og du vil høre floden bruse langs med, mens studerende øver traditionel kalligrafi på pladsen med vandpensler.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable walking shoes, the hilly campus has several steep stairways connecting the upper and lower sections.
- The riverside promenade behind the science building offers the best photo of the campus against the Yellow River and the mountains beyond.
- Visit the old library's courtyard on a weekend morning to catch local students practicing tai chi and water calligraphy.
- Don't bother with the administrative buildings; the real character is in the older stone teaching halls near the central lawn.
