  • It's a bit of a ride outside the city but this is a phenomenal building. The campus is also nice for a stroll but it's a quick stop.

  • I have been to several universities in Taiwan but the architecture and history of this university are unique. University is full of greenish surroundings with animal husbandry for research and food purposes which include deer, cows, peacocks, and ducks. The University has a convenience store where you can fresh milk from the University firm and it also has Macdonald's, family mart, star bucks, and many more. The University has a beautifully crafted church and the university is perfect for weekend walks and exploring nature. The University is well connected to public transportation. The University has a night market near campus.
  • Beautiful campus The Chapel is the landmark and beautiful building designed by famous architect Mr. I.M. Pei
  • The University compound is so huge. It is open for public to visit as there is a famous attractions building inside the compound, the Luce Memorial Chapel. However, the Chapel only open on certain time if you wish to enter the building. Besides, there is a dessert store that selling milk related products named 乳品小站, the products included ice cream and drinking milk, the milk only available in big bottle but the paper cup is provided and oven is prepared for warm up it. One thing that I like so much about this place is the lush grass, feel so relaxing when laying on it.
  • The Chinese Language Center is very good offering several levels of classes. Beautiful campus.
  • THU maybe the most beautiful university in Taiwan .As an exchange student , I have spend 2 months here .What impressed me a lot is the buildings in THU ,most of them have Japanese style that I am really into them .Furthermore ,the students who study in THU are friendly and courteous .Btw ,u can see a number of tourists come the campus everyday ,So it is the factor why I said THU is attractive . All in all ,I love THU .
