Greenwich University: Experience the classical beauty of a maritime city through sight and sound.

Greenwich holds great significance for human development: the world time we use today originated here!

Every time I visit the UK, I make sure to stop by Greenwich City, starting with an exploration of Greenwich University. This institution was once a training ground for the Royal Navy, a royal palace, and even a prison, before becoming a prestigious university. Every corner exudes a rich academic atmosphere, and there are a few spots I highly recommend pausing to enjoy:

✅ Visitor Center: Spend 30 minutes learning about the history and development of Greenwich City.
✅ Trinity College surroundings: Listen to the enchanting performances by Trinity College students. The best spot is near the Thames River, where you can enjoy the sea breeze while listening to classical music.
✅ Naval Chapel: Pay special attention to the magnificent ceiling murals, which symbolize Britain's rise as a maritime power.

On your way back, take a moment to admire the Cutty Sark, a ship permanently docked on land. This 18th-century cargo vessel was one of the tea ships that sailed between China and Britain, witnessing the golden era of Sino-British trade.
