Most beautiful campuses worldwide?

I'm pretty open to studying abroad and I've always been a big fan of architectural beauty. Which universities around the world, do you think, have the most beautiful campuses?

This is truly a great question! Many universities worldwide boast stunning architectural beauty and natural charm. Here are a handful:

1. University of Cambridge, UK: The campus, with its timeless buildings like King's College Chapel and Trinity College Library, is really a sight to behold. The beauty of the River Cam flowing through the campus adds to the charm.

2. Princeton University, USA: A Ivy league school with gothic-style architecture, interspersed with modern buildings, the campus also includes the delightful Lake Carnegie.

3. University of Capetown, South Africa: Combining historic and modern architecture, it's situated at the foot of Table Mountain, providing a breathtaking backdrop.

4. University of Salamanca, Spain: This university has buildings dating back to the 13th century with a mix of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque styles.

5. Kyoto University, Japan: The campus is known for its blend of traditional and contemporary architectural styles, and the cherry blossom trees in the spring are a particular highlight.

6. University of Sydney, Australia: With Gothic-style sandstone buildings and green spaces, it often gets compared to Hogwarts!

7. McGill University, Canada: The campus offers stunning views of Montreal and has a rich architectural blend of the 19th century and modern buildings.

8. University of Bologna, Italy: As the oldest university in Europe, it has a variety of architectural styles, from medieval to modern.

This is by no means a comprehensive list! There are many more universities with beautiful campuses across the globe. I would recommend researching and exploring more if you're drawn to studying in an environment with a lot of architectural beauty.
