Foreigners Bar

Up until a week ago this was our unofficial garden bar. The locals thought it rather strange, but accepted it pretty well, but unfortunealy after a verbal altercation the Uni Directors have made "A New Rule" No Drinking on the Street.

Many Lotus Plants

The Chinese use the dead seed pod and roots as a vegetable - the lotus roots would have to be one of my favourite vegetables here.

Entrance No.2

This is the Entrance Road no. 2 into the Uni - all roads are lined with Elm Trees - makes it a little cooler in the hot summer months.

I have one class in this lecture hall on the 3rd floor.
