There is a lot of literary atmosphere here, especially suitable for taking photos. The school's Republican-era buildings are simple and solemn. You can enter by swiping your ID card. The whole school is located on the mountain, by the Qiantang River. The public transportation is also very convenient. When the weather is hot, it is also very good to come here to escape the heat and feel the intellectual atmosphere here.

However, when visiting a school, you must be quiet and stay away from the teaching area as much as possible. Travel in a civilized manner.

By Yuyu |

It can be said that Zhijiang Campus is the school I most yearn for. The school is very beautiful. There are ancient trees everywhere, which is especially good for playing in summer. The school's Lover's Lake is also a beautiful landscape. The most distinctive features of Zhijiang Campus are the natural scenery and the architecture of the Republic of China and European style. The unique architectural style has become a landmark attraction, with green trees and red bricks, towering ancient trees, and pavilions facing each other, with a strong literary and artistic atmosphere. The location is not particularly convenient, but maybe this inconvenience is like a treasure, waiting for people to discover.

The campus is not big, and the main attractions are concentrated on the tower and Lover's Lake on the right side of the campus. You can see them all in an hour, and you can use the rest of the time to climb the mountain, visit the school buildings and the library, which would be great. Because of the traffic jam, I missed lunch in the cafeteria, so I had to go to the school restaurant next to the cafeteria. The food looked very ordinary, but I didn't expect the taste to be far beyond my expectations. If you bring your children, it would be nice to sit on the lawn in front of the bell tower for a whole day. You must bring your ID card when entering the campus. I encountered several groups of people who did not bring their ID cards. In order to protect the cultural relics and buildings and school security, no one was allowed to enter!

The most beautiful campus in China, writing stories into the scenery

The architecture of Zhejiang University's Zhijiang Campus has a retro feel. It was once a church university and one of the thirteen Christian universities in China. The whole environment is very similar to Aletheia University in Taipei.

There are about 15 or 16 old buildings on campus, including some that have been repaired and are still in use, and some that are abandoned and waiting to be repaired. The main building, the bell tower, the old library, Building No. 2 and other old buildings have all been repaired. The main building is the administrative building, Building No. 1 and Building No. 2 are teacher office buildings, Building No. 3, Building No. 7 and Zeng Xianzi Building are teaching buildings, Building No. 4 has a mock court, and Building No. 6 is the campus hospital.

There is a pond with azure blue water to the north of the Bell Tower Square, which looks like a mini version of Jiuzhaigou. With the stone bridge and the towering trees beside it, plus a few cherry trees, it is so beautiful! There is no regret in life to be able to study in such an institution!

The old brick building with moss growing on the hillside is now the school's small auditorium. From a distance, it looks like a magic school laboratory in the movie. This auditorium also allows students and faculty to hold weddings here.

Some functional buildings such as libraries and multimedia classrooms can only be entered by students or faculty of the school.

Address: No. 51, Zhijiang Road, Xihu District, Hangzhou

Tips: 1. You need to register your ID card information to enter, so remember to bring your ID card

2. Blue ponds may have more mosquitoes in summer

3. It is difficult to get a taxi in the surrounding area, so it is best to call a taxi in advance

4. There is no place to eat nearby. If you eat at school, you can discuss with the students to use the meal card. The canteen is open: breakfast 06:30-09:30, lunch 11:00-12:45, dinner 16:30-22:00

Recommended tour time: 2 hours

【Zhejiang University Zhijiang Campus】 has become a must-visit place for literary and artistic people. The entire campus is built along Zhijiang Road by the Qiantang River and is known as "the most beautiful university campus in Hangzhou". Zhijiang Campus was one of the thirteen Christian universities at that time, with a strong Western style.

After entering the campus, you can see the legendary century-old clock tower with the words "Economics Hall" written on it. Groups of students are sitting on the lawn in front of the building basking in the sun.

The camellia flowers in front of the main building are in full bloom, and I am reluctant to move away.

Lover's Lake near Building 15 is the most stunning and romantic place on the entire campus. The lake water is emerald green and the scenery is comparable to Jiuxi.

There is a stone bridge on the lake, called Lover's Bridge. Facing such a beautiful scenery, it would be a waste if you don't have a relationship or a date while in school.

The paths on campus are winding, and because it is built on a hill, some teaching buildings require climbing high stairs to reach. I joked with my husband: If you are like me, you will easily roll down the hill when you are in a hurry for class.

Each teaching building or library is like a small villa hidden in the forest. The campus is full of red maple trees, so you can enjoy the red leaves in spring.

This is the first campus I have ever seen that is located on a mountain, and it is next to Qiantang River. You have to climb the mountain to attend classes, go down the mountain to go to the gym, go down the mountain from the gym to the sports field, and climb the mountain to go back to the dormitory... When I arrived, it was already late. The whole campus was beautiful but also a little eerie. I scared myself and finally didn't dare to go to some places.

By Trayling |

There were surprisingly few people on campus. We entered from the southwest gate and could see the old-fashioned clock tower as soon as we entered. The quiet campus was full of old red brick buildings and lush trees. We walked around casually and took a nap on the lawn opposite the Economics Building.

By 瑤 |

It is an institution of learning that many students dream of, a youthful dream that they dare to strive for, a forest campus built on the mountain, with the Qiantang River opposite the school gate, and the school scenery is very beautiful.

After seeing the Zhejiang University Zhijiang Campus, China-TravelNote wanted to go there so much that we arranged it the next day. It is really beautiful. Without further ado, let’s take a look at the picture of this school built in the forest.

By Pan-sphere |

It was written on the China-TravelNote that it was open all day. I arrived at the school gate at 6:00 in the morning and was told that I was not allowed to enter because it was too early. In order to catch the flight at noon, I had to return. You forgot that you are a university, a place for teaching and educating people, you are not a tourist attraction, not a government office! Can the security guard at the gate be laid off? He thought he was guarding Zhongnanhai. Even Tsinghua University and Peking University did not keep people away like this, Zhejiang University is so awesome!

By Snow viewing in Jiangnan |

You need to bring your ID card to enter the campus. You can pay with Alipay in the campus cafeteria, which is 20% more expensive than for students of the same school. The campus has beautiful scenery and the water of the Lover's Bridge is really green.

By Niu Niu |

Zhijiang Campus is a campus with a very high cultural level!

By Orange~Azusa |

I am very envious of the teachers and students here. There are few tourists and it is very quiet.

By SIR |

The Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University is located on the bank of Qiantang River. When I was staying at the B&B in Hupao, the lady boss strongly recommended this niche attraction. It is really a good place surrounded by mountains and rivers, with small red brick buildings nestled in the greenery, which is really nice.

By Wait panda |

This is a place I will come back to again. I envy the people who study here. They feel so happy.

By Via |

The old campus requires ID card registration to enter, which is suitable for taking some artistic photos. The cats inside are very cute, but a little shy.

By Where is the Marshal? |

The Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University is really beautiful, with lush vegetation and many old buildings. The Zhijiang Campus is a little far from the hotel where we stayed, about 10 kilometers away, and it is not easy to get a taxi. The driver said that it is mainly because of the remote location, so it is recommended that friends who are interested in visiting there choose public transportation. Now the Zhijiang Campus is very strictly managed, and you need to register with your ID card to enter the visit. Friends must not forget, otherwise it will be a wasted trip.

The school in the mountains is very beautiful. Come and check in at the dream school for junior high school

By Read |

It is indeed beautiful, but the bell tower is not allowed to climb now! ! !

By An Pu Pu |

PS: You must bring your ID card to register before entering

It was still a holiday.

It's empty inside

No food or drink

What a pity

I wanted to eat in the cafeteria but didn't get to eat there

A very old campus.

The security guard is very unfriendly

Fierce

Several girls were scolded when they wanted to go in.

Very bad attitude

By Dust Dust |

Zhejiang University can definitely be ranked on the list of Chinese universities based on its beauty, especially the Zhijiang campus. Zhijiang campus is now said to be a graduate school campus (not sure which major), with retro red buildings and a clock tower. It looks like the filming location of the heroine's university in the movie "Tangshan Earthquake". But for tourists, there is no other choice except driving/taking a taxi, and the security at the entrance is quite strict. When I went to take pictures with my mother, the security guard asked us to register our ID cards before we were allowed to enter the campus. Two people who arrived at the same time (one of them brought various photographic equipment, and the other was dressed up, probably a model) were turned away and not allowed to enter. The library of Zhijiang campus is particularly beautiful, but you are not allowed to enter without a student card. I could only look at the interior at the door. Retro and modern.

Zhejiang University does not strictly manage the number of tourists like some other university campuses (such as Tsinghua University and Fudan University. I wanted to take a shortcut at Fudan University, but the security guard would not allow me to do so. I still remember it). However, perhaps because of the remote geographical location of the Zhijiang Campus and the high proportion of its student population in scientific research, the management is relatively strict.

By Turn up |

Take the bus to Zhejiang University Zhijiang Campus and walk for a few minutes to arrive

Just register at the gate and you can enter the school

The whole school feels very quiet and the scenery is great

It's a good place to take photos

The water in the Lover's Pool is really green, and it feels great to take photos standing on the bridge

The campus architecture is also very distinctive

There are a lot of mosquitoes, please bring mosquito repellent

By Han |

Back to school, the campus is not particularly large, but the green grass is rushing, and the youthful atmosphere fills the entire campus

By Happy Travel Around the World |

It has a long history and unique architecture, and is a rare and quiet place.

By Tilly |

The university is beautiful, one of the most beautiful universities I have ever seen, but it is too tiring to go to school with all the climbing up and down.

By yiyaya work Q |

The university campus has a long history and profound cultural heritage.

By luna_show |

You can enter the school to visit with your ID card. Because I had to carry my luggage and the weather was hot, I only went to the bell tower and the Lover's Bridge. It was already beautiful. I think it would be more beautiful if I walked inside.

By Flying guinea pig |

Lover's Bridge is a must-see! ! A must-see for those who love red walls! This school is so beautiful!

By Ranran loves traveling |

The Zhijiang Campus is built on the mountain, giving people a sense of tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of the world.

The campus is lush with vegetation and is beautiful and elegant. The architectural style is a combination of Eastern and Western styles, and the exterior walls are basically red bricks and plain concrete.

By Sika |

The Zhijiang Campus is located halfway up the mountain. In the lush campus, many European-style teaching buildings are located on the hillside. We started from the right and walked around the campus, walking on the uphill and downhill stone roads. There were not many people on the campus. The whole campus was quiet and cool. The Zhijiang Campus is the School of Optical Law of Zhejiang University. It feels like one of the scenic spots of West Lake, not like a university.

By Pinellia |

The Zhijiang Campus is located on the bank of Qiantang River, surrounded by mountains, far away from the hustle and bustle of the world and with lush vegetation. Most of the buildings were built in the early 20th century and are beautiful and elegant. The "Tangshan Earthquake" was filmed here.

The water of the reservoir on campus is azure blue, a bit like a small Jiuzhaigou

By Deer Dream |

Zhijiang Campus is close to Baita Park and can be reached by bicycle, but the campus is built on a hill, and riding uphill will make you doubt your life. After entering the campus, you need to swipe your ID card, and then you can open the series of other people's schools. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

The campus architecture is very distinctive, with a strong Republican style. The lawn of the School of Economics easily reminds people of the scene where graduates from the Republic of China stood here to take graduation photos.

You can walk along the path between the Upper Red House and the Lower Red House in Zhejiang University. The forest is quiet and the sun is blocked out. Occasionally, you can hear the rustling of leaves and the crows calling. The wind blows gently, chilling your back. There are several uninhabited houses on the mountain. The doors are all locked and the windows are broken. I looked inside and was surprised to find that it was actually a bathroom sink. Thinking of the campus legend, I was terrified and took a few steps back, not daring to move forward.

Halfway down the mountain, you can see a library with gray brick walls, wooden window frames, and windows like mirrors. Looking into the windows from afar, you can see bright lights hanging, all in warm colors. You hurry down the mountain and happily go there. You write a letter to the library, saying that you are not welcome to visit.

When you arrive at the Zhijiang campus, I highly recommend going to the Lover's Bridge. The water is blue-green and the atmosphere is quiet, which is very suitable for sitting down and resting.

By Original Story |

The Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University is like a beautiful girl who lives in seclusion. It is a place that is less known but is gradually becoming more well-known. There are many old buildings from the Republic of China period on the campus. This school built by foreigners has a strong foreign flavor. There are few students on campus, perhaps because they are in class. In addition to a few visitors who come here to admire its reputation, there are also a few groups of students wearing graduation gowns who come here to take graduation commemorative photos. The campus seems very quiet.

When entering the door, the security guard kindly reminded us that we needed to scan our ID card to enter.

Go up the stone stairs on the right side opposite the school gate and you will reach the school bell tower.

The gray house is already a dangerous building.

The upper red room has been locked and cannot be approached. Yang Fan is still there

The Lower Red Room doesn't seem to be in use now.

The White House is said to have just been repaired and renovated and has not yet been used.

The small auditorium is very charming, attracting many young hipsters to take photos here.

The main building is currently being used for teaching, so please be reminded that you are not allowed to enter for visits.

The "Lover's Lake" on campus is not big, but the water is blue and quiet. The "Lover's Bridge" on both sides lies across the lake. It is a good place to talk about love.

The Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University is a red brick building. The campus is not big, but it is famous for being the site of the Tangshan earthquake. Many people are taking graduation photos there.

By China-TravelNote users |

Red tiles, green trees, blue sky and white clouds, a good place to daydream

By Little lazy |

Check in at the most beautiful Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University. Remember to bring your ID card and swipe it to enter. The school is surrounded by forests on the mountain. The environment is really good and the campus is very quiet. The red brick house is beautiful in the sun and against the green trees. There is a small reservoir under the Lover's Bridge. The blue-green water is particularly beautiful. The campus is very small. I walked around it in less than an hour. The playground and the cafeteria are not big either. The food in the cafeteria looks good. There is a cute cat at the delivery point.

Compared with Wuhan University and Xiamen University, which are well-known for their large number of tourists, Zhejiang University seems a bit more introverted. Among the several campuses of Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, Zhijiang University is the most quiet and artistic one. The entire campus is built along Zhijiang Road by the Qiantang River, but there is also a Shunyu Road separating it. After a short uphill road, you will see the green Zhijiang Campus in a blink of an eye. In my impression, Zhijiang Campus has always been an artistic and ideal existence. It is also a popular check-in point in Hangzhou, and many people come here to take pictures. This is a semi-open campus. If you are not a teacher or student of this school, you must remember to bring your ID card and register with your ID card at the school gate before you can enter.

Because the Zhijiang campus was one of the thirteen Christian universities back then, the entire campus is full of Western style, and the red bell tower is considered a landmark building in the entire campus. There are two great angles to see the bell tower. The first is at the sign of "National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit", where you can see a relatively complete picture. But the second angle is the best. Looking out from the main entrance of Severance Hall, the curved branches in the near distance just form a "frame", and the bell tower in the distance is right in the center of the picture, with layers of distance and nearness. I feel that this angle will be more harmonious than the first angle ==. However, the weather was not very good on the day I went there, and the central square became the activity venue for Zhejiang University Yixing, so I didn't see a quiet scene.

It turns out that the small auditorium of Zhijiang University is also called Duke Hall. This name has a strong family flavor, because this small church was funded and built by the Duke family of New Jersey, USA. It is a symbolic building of the church university and is located in one of the corners of the school.

Go towards Building 15, which is the back of the bell tower, and you will find the Lover's Bridge. When I first saw this place, my first reaction was: Isn't this Jiuxi Yanshu? ? ? The same clear green lake water, the same quiet environment, it's really Ctrl C +Ctrl V Jiuxi Yanshu.

Zhijiang Campus is very close to Baita Park. They are both on Zhijiang Road. They are easy to find. There is no parking fee at the entrance. It is on the slope. Let's check in and take a photo.

As you enter the door, you will see the most famous red clock tower in the second picture below. There is a broad-leaved net plant planted next to it. It looks very nice. Although I don’t know what this tree is called, it is very Instagram-style.

Outsiders need to show their ID cards to enter the school. Once you enter, you will see small pavilions and red brick houses, which are quite unique. There are not many people in the entire campus, and there are also few students in class. When walking inside, pay attention to insect prevention. There are many trees inside, so there are many mosquito bites.

By Solitary |

Zhijiang Campus is a great place to take photos and act like a hipster. But remember to bring your ID card! We almost couldn't get in because we didn't have one! The overall campus atmosphere is great, with European and Chinese styles. The natural scenery is also great! Recommended!

By Dead young man hahaha |

This is what my ideal university should be like!!

By Watching the clouds roll in and out |

This place was once a church university jointly founded by the Presbyterian Church of the United States and the Presbyterian Church of the United States in Hangzhou, China, and one of the thirteen Christian universities in China. Its predecessor was Qiushi Academy, founded in 1897, which was also one of the earliest modern institutions of higher learning founded by the Chinese themselves. It was renamed National Zhejiang University in 1928.

The campus is now home to Zhejiang University Guanghua Law School and Zhejiang University Institute of Advanced Humanities Studies, covering an area of ​​650 acres and 70,000 square meters of buildings.

Opposite the main building in the distance is the most eye-catching red brick bell tower at the place we just came up, highlighting the typical color of a church university.

The campus is the "National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit - the Former Site of Zhijiang University", which has "a fairly well-preserved modern university building complex" and "was awarded the second place in the world for the most intact protected modern university buildings".

This is a three-dimensional campus hidden in the forest on the hillside, with mountains and water facing each other, which is unique. The entire building complex is built on the mountain, with different heights. The architecture is a combination of Chinese and Western styles, with the style of modern European architecture, and also retains the shadow of the Renaissance. It is simple and novel, and is one of the most complete modern university campuses in China.

By Zhou Dianfeng |

The various campuses of Zhejiang University are of different ages and styles. My favorite is the Zhijiang Campus. The Zhijiang Campus, also known as the former site of Zhijiang University, is located on the west side of the Liuhe Pagoda. It is a church school founded by the American Presbyterian Church. There are 22 buildings, including the bell tower, Shensi Hall, library, and Du Ke Hall. The overall appearance of the former site of Zhijiang University is relatively intact. The architectural style is unified but unique, and the cultural and historical information is rich. It was listed as the 6th batch of national key cultural relics protection units in 2006. It is also the first church university site in the country to be included in the national protection. You can enter the site for a visit by registering with your ID card, and the security guard at the door will not make things difficult. The area is not large, so it won't take too much time even if you appreciate it carefully.

It feels like the whole campus is full of trees... But the school is still very beautiful, and I met students taking graduation photos. There are many red houses in the school

The beauty of Zhejiang University's Zhijiang Campus can be said to be at the fairyland level, because it made us cry with beauty even before we entered the campus gate!

There is a red bell tower which is one of the most famous buildings in the school. In 2010, Feng Xiaogang's movie "Aftershock" was filmed at the Zhijiang campus. In the movie, Zhang Jingchu and Lu Yi met in the door under this bell tower. This bell tower was built in 1936 and is located at the southernmost end of the school. It is three stories high and has a huge clock on the top. It is said that standing at the highest point of the bell tower, you can overlook the Qiantang River not far away. Unfortunately, in 2007, this bell tower was temporarily closed to the public. It was not until the end of 2016 that the 80-year-old bell tower was reopened to the public after being renovated.

Yes, now you can climb up the bell tower and take a look at the Qiantang River again.

In the Zhijiang campus, almost every teaching building or library is hidden in a green area. Because it is on the mountain, some places need to climb stairs or slopes to reach. Although climbing is a bit physically demanding, in such a fairyland-like school, climbing a few slopes is not a problem at all. The real problem may be: in summer, there are too many mosquitoes!

It was summer when we went there, and our legs were already full of blisters after walking for less than ten minutes. So if you go there in the summer, be sure to take precautions against mosquitoes in advance!

There is also a beautiful internet-famous lake in the Zhijiang campus. It is not only beautiful in appearance, but also has a beautiful name: Lover's Lake!

The water of Lover's Lake is emerald green and clear. The leaves that have fallen from the trees float quietly on the lake. Tiny dragonflies stand quietly on the fallen leaves, swaying in the breeze. Accompanied by the chirping of birds in the trees and the chirping of cicadas, we can hardly move.



The roads in the campus are winding. Walking along such a path, you can hear the sound of spring water flowing, which is particularly poetic. Keep walking and walking, and you will reach another small gate of the school. On the other side of this gate, there is a mountain spring that spirals down along the path with us. Due to the terrain, the spring water from top to bottom forms a small white waterfall, which flows down into a small stream full of stones and flows slowly along the riverbed towards the Qiantang River.

It takes nearly half an hour to get from Jiuxi to the main road. Adhering to the self-abuse and thrifty principle of "walk instead of riding a bike if you can, ride a bike instead of taking a car if you can, and take a car instead of calling a taxi if you can", you will be greeted by a cold river breeze when you come out. On the bank of Qiantang River is Zhijiang University, which was built by an American couple.

Zhijiang University is really just as it is described in the introduction:

This is a school hidden in the shade of trees. The school goes up the mountain. After entering the campus, you can see the most beautiful century-old bell tower on campus.

Zhejiang University's Zhijiang Campus is also the filming location for the movie "Aftershock".

The Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University was one of the thirteen Christian universities at that time, with a strong Western style.

The entrance is on a slope. I rode my bike past it in a moment and then turned back.

You need to register your ID card to enter the school. It's such a secluded place and you can hardly see anyone. I really regret not studying hard and not having good genes for studying. Now I can only envy others.

By Jenny |

A school worth visiting. Walking on the quiet road, the red brick buildings with a very humanistic atmosphere instantly bring you back to the Republic of China period. The school is located in Hangzhou, the "paradise on earth", by the beautiful West Lake. The school has five campuses, Yuquan, Xixi, Huajiachi, Hubin, Zhijiang, and a new campus. The campus environment is beautiful, set against the scenery of the West Lake, creating a good environment for students and teachers to study and live.

【Zhejiang University "Zhijiang Campus"】Check in at the internet-famous campus! The scene where Zhang Jingchu went to college in Feng Xiaogang's movie "Aftershock" was filmed here.

[Guide] You need to register with your ID card to enter the campus! The campus is not big, you can walk all the way southwest, and then go out the back door after touring the entire campus, or walk to Building 15. The nearby Lover's Lake has turquoise water and a stone bridge on the lake. It is the most romantic place in the entire campus. The most distinctive main building on campus, Shensi Hall, the bell tower, and the library are concentrated in the northeast corner near the main entrance. It is easy to find them by walking along the main road. Follow the signs and walk along the path up the hillside. There are several hidden old houses. The most worth seeing are the Upper Red House and the Lower Red House. Both villas have a history of more than 100 years, with round arched porches, carved columns, and traces of ancient Roman architecture.

This is a century-old university with a strong Western style. It is located in Yuelun Mountain beside Liuhe Pagoda on the bank of Qiantang River. It is like an unknown scholar, quietly sitting in the middle of the south of the Yangtze River. Some people say that this is the most mysterious campus in Hangzhou, and almost no one can explore every corner of it.

The stream under the Lover's Bridge gurgles and forms a pool of clear water surrounded by trees. Occasionally, pairs of mandarin ducks play and swim in the clear water, creating a beautiful scene.

I was worried about how to climb the mountain when I got off the bus, but there was a small opening where I could see the sign. The Zhijiang Campus is located on a hillside. It is the Guanghua Law School campus of Zhejiang University. It is very Republican-style overall and is said to be the filming location of the movie "Tangshan Earthquake". I checked Baidu before I went there and it said that the bell tower was haunted 😂 However, after I went there, it might be because of the gloomy weather and I went alone, it did feel a bit eerie~ However, the campus is not big, but you have to climb a lot of slopes~ Overall, it is really an ancient and quaint campus.

In terms of scenery, it should be the most beautiful among the several campuses of Zhejiang University. It is located on a gentle slope by the Qiantang River, separated from the main road below by a section of woods, so it is very quiet. There are large areas of gentle slope grasslands, Western-style red brick buildings with a history of hundreds of years, and the names of various "hall" are also engraved with history. After visiting Tamkang Middle School and Aletheia University in Taiwan, I suddenly found that from the surrounding terrain to the architectural environment, they are similar to the Zhijiang Campus.

Unlike other church universities in China that mostly use a combination of Chinese and Western architectural styles, Zhijiang University uses a completely Western architectural style, including classical revivalism, medieval Gothic style, and a unique American colonial style. This is the only church university site in the country that has been included in the national key protection unit protection list.

I took a bus to the Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University. I needed my ID card to enter the school. The whole school is relatively old. The student living area is relatively concentrated, and there are relatively few students here. I really like to walk around in such universities. Each university has its own different feel.

By My sister is going on a trip |

The rainy season around Qingming Festival is probably the most beautiful time in Hangzhou. It’s best to walk in the century-old school with friends when the ground is still wet after the rain. It’s wonderful~

In the Yuelun Mountains beside the Liuhe Pagoda on the bank of the Qiantang River, there is a beautiful campus hidden in the mountains. It is the Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University. Its predecessor was a church university jointly founded by the Presbyterian Church of the United States and the Presbyterian Church of the United States in Hangzhou, China. It is one of the thirteen Christian universities in China, Zhijiang University. After hiking down Fenghuang Mountain and Yuhuang Mountain, I took a taxi to the Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University. I showed my ID at the gate to register. I turned the hillside and arrived at the lawn between the main building and the bell tower. I didn't expect to encounter a romantic campus wedding here. I was fortunate to watch this simple but absolutely romantic wedding. Both the husband and wife were graduates of Zhejiang University. The groom stayed at the school to become a teacher after graduation. The bride took her father's arm and walked down the steps from the main building to the lawn. The groom knelt down to put the wedding knot on the bride, and then said some touching vows. I wish them a happy life. Leaving the wedding scene and slowly walking around the campus, there is the Zhijiang Bell Tower which has just reopened, the main building of Shensi Hall built in 1910, the century-old camphor trees, the library full of the scent of books, the small auditorium where Stuart worked, and a kind of tranquility that can never be found outside.

I went there to study, haha, the food in the hotel is very good and the school is very clean. If I could have been admitted here, it would have been awesome!

A university on the mountain, with ancient buildings, it feels like going to school is like visiting a park.

By Yannis-W |

The campus is built on a hillside, and there are really a lot of green plants. It is a bit tiring to climb the slope, and I feel sorry for the students in this campus... But the environment is very quiet and it is indeed suitable for studying.

By Little Gray |

A must-see for movies about the Republic of China, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party... It closes at 6pm. When I went there, it was already 6pm and the door was only slightly open. When I went in, I pretended to be a student, calm and composed, and walked in naturally without looking around. It was like going back to my own home... It happened to rain on the day I went there, and it was even more heartwarming... Haha, the campus has its own Little Jiuzhaigou

This is probably the most beautiful community in Zhejiang University. It is located on the bank of Qiantang River and built in the mountains. It was originally a law school invested and built by foreigners and later incorporated into Zhejiang University. The campus is dominated by American-style buildings and there is a large auditorium. The environment is elegant and it is worth a walk. The most important thing is that it was also the filming location of the Tangshan earthquake!

By Sleep |

Green shade, the sound of reading, the century-old bell tower, the green lover, it is worth the trip to come here. . . .

By Fluffy Bar |

This is where I studied, it is also a place that makes people dream, and it is also the most beautiful university campus!

I got up early in the morning and took the bus to the Qiantang River. With the guidance of an enthusiastic sanitation lady, I finally found the Zhijiang Campus of Zhejiang University, a well-known university by the Qiantang River. Before 7 o'clock in the morning, the sun was shrouded in mist, and the campus tour began. Bring your ID card and register with the guard to visit the campus. No bicycles and private cars are allowed on the campus. Only construction vehicles and faculty vehicles are allowed to enter. The campus is very quiet and the air is not good. The greening rate is very high. No wonder I asked the accommodation next to the campus cafeteria if it is open to the public? The answer is that it is open to the public on Saturdays and Sundays, 300 yuan per person per day. The rest of the time, groups are received but individual guests are not received. Next to the campus is the Railway Group Sanatorium. The cafeteria is for students and teachers to swipe cards, and cash and Alipay are not accepted. It is only for internal faculty and students. There are not many students and faculty, and the overall impression is quiet and natural. The Republican architectural complex is also unique. It is worth a visit.

The campus is built on a mountain. Although it is not big, you need to climb up and down. There are many trees, which is a good place for photography.

By I only care about you |

It feels like a gimmick. It is built on a mountain, by the Qiantang River, a little far from the West Lake Scenic Area. It takes about an hour to ride along Yanggong Dike. Bicycles are not allowed to enter the school gate. Most of the buildings are red, which is the style of the old campus. It's average.

Zhejiang University has three campuses. Zhijiang Campus is the oldest, but there are still students attending classes here. The campus is not very big, but the colors are very beautiful, with green trees and red houses. Many crews come here to shoot campus dramas. It is very quiet, not many people, but there are many plants and cute kittens. They never take pictures of strangers. The gate of the campus is difficult to find. You have to go up a small slope. Outside is the Qiantang River. The scenery is very good.

By Dai Yiqiongbai |

Remember to bring your ID card! Otherwise you can't get in. The bell tower is under renovation recently, so the most worth seeing is the Lover's Lake.

I happened to see three couples taking wedding photos that day. They looked beautiful without any editing.

By Posada |

The campus is small and exquisite, with few colleges, mainly law.

By Tangerine peel |

I came with great excitement and left with great excitement. I suddenly wanted to visit the Xiazhijiang campus, so I went to see it, and I was not disappointed in the end.

By A pair of small scissors |

The historic old campus~Zhejiang University's third branch, where students from the School of Physics and the School of Management were located in the last century. Basically, the campus is full of old buildings, such as the small auditorium, Fu Lei's former residence, the bell tower, and the teaching building, which are all very distinctive. This should be a good place to take wedding photos and portraits. Several couples I know took photos here. You can enter with your ID card to visit. It is next to the Liuhe Pagoda and Qiantang River. It is a point far away from the city. If you are sentimental, you can come and take a look. It is a very beautiful campus~

By Wang Yucheng |

The most beautiful campus of Zhejiang University is also one of the most beautiful campuses in China. It is located on the hillside by the Qiantang River. It was founded in the 1920s and was formerly known as Zhijiang University. Later, the four schools of Zhejiang University merged to become the Zhijiang Campus. Now it is the location of Guanghua Law School. The interior of the campus is dominated by brick-red buildings, which complement the verdant green mountains. From the highest bell tower, you can see the wide Qiantang River, and you can also watch the tide here in autumn. There is a small path behind the campus that leads directly to the mountain. The end point of the Zhejiang University Trail Walk in spring and autumn every year is at the Zhijiang Campus.

The environment is beautiful. I envy the students here. It was a weekend when I went there. There were not many people in the school. I needed to register to enter. I borrowed a meal card from a student at Zhejiang University and had breakfast. Well, the taste was average, but I felt like I was back to school.

By 💎💎💎 |

When I went to the Zhijiang campus, it felt deserted.

Most of the rooms are locked, so you can only walk around the campus

But it also has a different taste

There is a playground at the bottom of the mountain, but there is no plastic track.

There is no green lawn.

But it is said that in summer it will be full of small white flowers, very beautiful
