We were nearby for a work conference so we decided to run to the campus and take a look. The campus, particularly the buildings, were amazing! Wonderful architectural detail and history in most of the buildings. The cathedral on campus was spectacular. Don't hesitate to take a look.
We had a great tour of Princeton!!! We were super impressed with the tour and loved all of the historical information we gleaned along the way.
The main campus sits on about 500 acres. In 2011, the main campus is very beautiful. As of October 2018, 65 Nobel laureates, 15 Fields Medalists and 13 Turing Award laureates have been affiliated with Princeton University as alumni, faculty members or researchers. Great Albert Einstein spent 6 years here as professor .
A must visit for those who are interested in the academia,
We visited the Princeton Campus on Saturday morning, utilizing street parking on the edge of the campus. Many of the buildings were locked, but we went in the cathedral, library and free art museum. The old buildings were very picturesque. The meters need to be fed on Saturday but not Sunday.
Visited after graduation but campus still loaded with students.
A mix of very old buildings plus a scattering of 'modern' architecture.
Peter Lewis Library was designed by Frank Geary.
