Yangzhou University

Step into Yangzhou University (Lotus Pond Campus) where centuries-old academia meets Jiangnan garden artistry! The Lotus Pond steals the show with cherry blossoms in spring and fragrant lotuses in summer—a photographer's paradise. Wander through pavilions and modern buildings harmoniously coexisting, often dotted with art students sketching. Don't miss the university museum showcasing China's pioneering private college history. Pro tip: Visit at dusk when golden light bathes the arched bridges and willow reflections.
