ÃÀ¸ß÷¹ÙÍø

Still beauty

Image gallery captures a rare look at the ÃÀ¸ß÷¹ÙÍø at rest

Spring at the ÃÀ¸ß÷¹ÙÍø is normally among the most vibrant and lively times to experience one of the world’s most beautiful urban campuses.

These days, however, the place is nearly empty as tens of thousands of students, faculty and staff do their part to slow the spread of coronavirus by self-quarantining. While classrooms and labs sit empty and normally busy green spaces remain quiet — except for the sounds of singing birds and trickling water features — there is beauty in the stillness.Ìý
