Which Famous Historical University Is Getting Renovated In Asia?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The Nalanda University, one of the greatest and the most prestigious universities in the history of Asia is going through a process of renovation, an attempt to gain a smidgen of that rich scholastic heritage that was synonymous to its name.  The opulent legacy of knowledge that this historical landmark carried for almost seven centuries is attempted to be recaptured.
    It was an architectural tour de force that glorified the era between the fifth century to the twelfth century with its spiritual soul of refinement, its capacious lecture halls and those rooms for monks and temples.  
    For those students who will behold the honour of studying here after the renovation process is completed, it will be a matter of a mixture of covetous emotions and feelings of pride as they will register in their minds that it is the same place where Xuanzang or Huan Tsang, the proverbial Chinese philosopher was part of this wonderful institute both as a student and as a teacher.
    Back in those days, the Nalanda University that was located in the town of Nalanda, housed about 10000 students and 2000 teachers.  The curriculum was as eclectically elysian as the institute itself ranging from courses like Buddhist studies, politics, astronomy to subjects like art of war, fine arts and medicine.
