Canada is known for its tremendous forests, scenic coast lines, and overwhelming mountains. Many universities in the country were built in the midst of these landscapes, while others boast brilliant architecture; some even combine the two. Here are five of the most beautiful campuses in Canada.
加拿大以其浩瀚的森林、風(fēng)景優(yōu)美的海岸線和令人沉迷的山景聞名世界。許多加國的大學(xué)校園就是在這些美景之中建造起來的,而有些校園則是有著宏偉堂皇的建筑風(fēng)格,有一些學(xué)校甚至同時結(jié)合兩者。以下,就帶大家來見識一下加拿大顏值最高的五座校園!
THE? ? UNIVERSITY? ?OF? ?BRITISH? ?COLUMBIA
British Columbia is often considered the most beautiful and scenic province in Canada; it sits along the west coast with the ocean on one side, and forests and mountains enveloping the rest of the province. UBC is located in the midst of this scenery, seemingly placed in its own private forest, surrounded by trees older than many other universities in the country. Both mountains and water can be seen from its buildings, providing its students with year-long beauty.
ROYAL ROADS UNIVERSITY
This university is not as well-known as many other Canadian schools, but can easily be considered one of the most beautiful. It is found on the southern tip of Victoria Island, also a part of British Columbia. Its main building is a castle that was built by a wealthy family, the Dunsmuirs, in 1908, and is surrounded by manicured wilderness. A few decades after, it was turned into a university. The castle in particular has been used as a location for many films, including X-Men.
THE? UNIVERSITY? OF? WESTERN? ONTARIO
Western University is located in London, Ontario, which is not often considered a scenic city. However, the layout and design of the university’s campus is often cited as Canada’s most beautiful. Many of its buildings are made out of stone and are laid out around its perfectly constructed green spaces. There are bodies of water scattered among the buildings and surrounded by grass. In the fall, the trees on campus change colours, providing a landscape view unlike many others.
THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO-ST. GEORGE CAMPUS
When walking through the campus in the heart of downtown Toronto, you will be able to see buildings with architectural tendencies from different periods over the course of decades. Along with many Hogwarts—like buildings are a number of courtyards where many students will study during the warmer months of the year. Sitting in the middle of the campus in Queen’s Park, a large green space with trails and impressive monuments.
DALHOUSIE UNVERSITY/KING’S COLLEGE
King’s College at Dalhousie University is the third oldest university in Canada, founded in 1789 in Halifax, Nova Scotia on the east coast. Being one of the oldest universities, it houses some of the most historic and magnificent architecture in Canada as well. Additionally, it is surrounded by Dalhousie University, which was built in a similar style. In this campus as well, students find themselves in courtyards similar to the University of Toronto’s. Just blocks away from the campus are the ocean, and a beautiful dock and port.
不列顛哥倫比亞大學(xué)(UBC)
不列顛哥倫比亞經(jīng)常被視作加拿大最美麗、風(fēng)景最宜人的省份。它坐落在西海岸,臨海而立,其它的區(qū)域則被森林和高山覆蓋。UBC的校園則是坐落在此美景之中,仿佛擁有自己的私家園林,連其中樹木的年齡都要長于加國很多大學(xué)的校齡。從校園里的建筑看出去風(fēng)景獨(dú)好,有山有水,在這里學(xué)習(xí)真可謂美景全年長伴。
加拿大皇家大學(xué)
這所大學(xué)可能不像其它加拿大大學(xué)一樣出名,但它經(jīng)常被認(rèn)為是加拿大最美麗的校園之一。它坐落于維多利亞島的南沿,也屬于不列顛哥倫比亞的一部分。校園主樓是一座城堡,由加拿大富有家族Dunsmuirs于1908年建造,當(dāng)時周圍茫茫荒野環(huán)繞。幾十年之后,原本的荒原之上一座美麗的校園已經(jīng)拔地而起。這座城堡也經(jīng)常在許多電影之中拋頭露面,包括《X-Men》。
西安大略大學(xué)(韋仕敦大學(xué))
韋仕敦大學(xué)坐落于安大略的倫敦,人們通常并不認(rèn)為這座城市的風(fēng)景有多美。但是,這座校園的規(guī)劃設(shè)計卻常常被稱贊為全加拿大最美麗的校園。許多的校園建筑由石頭砌成,由造型完美的綠化空間環(huán)繞。眾多建筑之間散布者星星點(diǎn)點(diǎn)的水域、草地。進(jìn)入秋季,校園中的樹木改換顏色,風(fēng)景獨(dú)好。
多倫多大學(xué)——圣喬治校園
當(dāng)你在位于多倫多鬧市區(qū)的學(xué)校校園中漫步時,你將感受到來自不同時代的不同建筑風(fēng)格。除了許多霍格沃茲風(fēng)格的建筑外,這里也有許多風(fēng)情別樣的小院,天氣暖和一些的月份里,許多學(xué)生都會坐在這些院子里學(xué)習(xí),置身于位于皇后公園校園之中,大片的綠地環(huán)繞,小徑通幽,石碑散立。
達(dá)爾豪斯大學(xué)/國王大學(xué)學(xué)院
達(dá)爾豪斯大學(xué)的國王大學(xué)學(xué)院是加拿大第三古老的大學(xué),于1789年在東海岸新斯科舍的哈利法克斯成立。作為歷史最悠久的大學(xué),這里有加拿大最具歷史底蘊(yùn)、最宏偉的建筑。此外,達(dá)爾豪斯大學(xué)的其它建筑也有著相似風(fēng)格(譯者注:國王大學(xué)學(xué)院1920年遷至達(dá)爾豪斯大學(xué),并與其合并)。這里的學(xué)生都覺得這里的庭院風(fēng)格,與多倫多大學(xué)的相似。離校園不遠(yuǎn),幾個街區(qū)之外就是大海,美麗的碼頭與港口。
