- Cheng Kung Lake
The area around Cheng Kung Lake features a beautiful environment, with scenic spots such as Wenchang Fenghuo, Ancient City Sunset, Rainbow Bridge Fish Viewing, and Clouds over Rong Garden. Nearby stand the buildings of the Department of History, Department of Chinese Literature, Li-Hsien Building, and Xiuqi Building. These structures blend classical and modern architectural styles; the buildings are grand and spacious, where both faculty and students study and relax with ease and contentment.
In the heart of former President Lai Ming-Chao, there was a deeper aspiration: that the Cambridge of the 20th century might gradually be recreated on the campus of National Cheng Kung University in the 21st century. He once said: Walking along the shores of Cheng Kung Lake under the phoenix flowers, is this not the same as Xu Zhimo’s Cambridge (the River Cam)?
