[2025 Nanjing Attraction] Travel Guide for Nanjing University (Gulou Campus) (Updated Mar)

Nanjing University Gulou Campus is located in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. As of September 3, 2022, the campus covers an area of nearly 800 mu and is one of the four campuses of Nanjing University. Nanjing University Gulou Campus is the site of the former Jinling University, a national key cultural relic protection unit. In 1952, Nanjing University moved from Sipailou to Gulou, and Gulou Campus became the main campus of Nanjing University until the Xianlin Campus of Nanjing University was put into use. Gulou Campus has the Nanjing University Museum of Archaeology and Art, Nanjing University Museum of Earth Sciences, and Nanjing University Museum of History, etc.

The North Building is a landmark of Nanjing University. Built in 1917, it was designed by American architect A.G. Small. The building is a brick and wood structure with two floors above ground and one floor below ground, with a total area of 3,473 square meters. It was built during a time of intense conflict and fusion between Chinese and Western civilizations. Interestingly, in 2025, people began to communicate warmly and friendly on a certain platform again. The teacher is really great. Back to the North Building, its architectural style reflects the influence of Western architecture on China in modern times, while retaining the traditional Chinese architectural features. A five-story square tower is built in the middle of the building, dividing the entire building into symmetrical east and west halves. The top of the tower is a cross-shaped ridge, which is actually a variant of a Western-style bell tower. The building materials used in the North Building are older than the building itself, with the main body built of bricks from the Ming Dynasty city wall, which are over 600 years old.

I've bookmarked this shop for a long time. Because it's in Nanjing University, I really want to go. ☕ Nanjing University used to be open to the public, and many areas were very familiar. Now, if you want to see those old buildings from the Republic of China and drink coffee, this is the fastest way to get in. 🩺 This shop is a coffee shop in the Nanjing University School of Medicine, and the name is also like this. The decoration of the shop is very much like a conference room, with a long table in the middle decorated with moss micro-landscapes. ☕ The recommendations are all special blends, but I only like SOE. The pear Americano has a strong sherry barrel flavor, and it's a big cup, which is a bit enjoyable to drink. 🍂 In late autumn, the ginkgo trees in Nanjing University are very colorful and fragrant. Take a walk around and feel the traces of history.

Nanjing University is also known as Nanda University. Although it is not comparable to Tsinghua University and Peking University, its popularity is also very large. NTU has two campuses, one is the old campus in Drum Tower and the other is the new campus in Xianlin. I have been to the new campus, the overall area is large and the facilities are also more perfect, the old campus is a little worse, but the old campus environment is better, the old buildings look more charming.

Nanjing has always given me a very charming and cultural feeling. The moment I really arrived in Nanjing, this kind of hunch did not disappoint me at all. The first stop came to the famous Nanjing University early. From the architectural style of the campus, we have already told us a lot about the past of Nanjing. The Nanjing University, which has a strong book, has become the first choice for locals to travel on weekends and foreign tourists.

"Nanda", a century-old famous school, is one of the birthplaces of modern Chinese science. It has a long history and a strong atmosphere. Every time you come to Nanda, there will always be different harvests, and the four seasons will change. The constant is "sincere and majestic." The spirit of Learning to Learn, the beautiful Nanda has become a business card of the ancient capital of Nanjing.
