As we all know, the world is full of beautiful places, and this is no different when comes to colleges and universities around the world. Most college campuses strive to be beautiful, peaceful places in which students can study, learn and enjoy life to the fullest extent. While there are many great and majestic looking colleges and universities in the United States, we do not have as long of a history as colleges and universities in other countries around the globe. There are colleges in Europe and Asia, especially that go back centuries and centuries and are in fact older than the United States of America is. These places have a historical beauty that can not be matched here in the United States of America. Here is a list of some of the most beautiful college and university campuses in the world:



Most beautiful college abroad #1. The University of Oxford, England

This college has some parts that date back to the 11th century, before it was ever even a college. It is often considered the example of which every college architect strives for. It has stood the test of time, and has a presence- both historically and aesthetically- that is downright awe inspiring. The college looks in many ways like a Gothic Church mixed within a labyrinth like maze. The most famous building at the University of Oxford is a domed building for the science department, which dates to the mid 18th century. Many architects consider the University of Oxford to be the best architectural collection in all of England, which is saying something, as England is world-renowned for its
architecture.

Most beautiful college abroad #2. Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland

Yet another college architectural masterpiece located in the isles of the Atlantic Ocean. Ireland is best known for its lush green landscapes, and it goes the same for the Trinity College. The Old Library on campus was founded by Queen Elizabeth in 1592, and it the tallest building on campus and houses hundreds of thousands of books that date back to its beginning. The library houses the Book of Kells, which was dated to be published around 800.

Most beautiful college abroad #3. Tsinghua University, China

--> The natural setting of the university, and the way it blends with nature makes this one of the prettiest colleges in the world. The university perfectly reflects the respect for nature that many parts of China possess.

Most beautiful college abroad #4. University of Bologna, Italy

--> This is possibly the oldest university in the world, and is therefore understated compared to most modern colleges, but that does not detract from how beautiful it is.
