PolyU's Hidden History?

fmd_good The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

I'm heading to The Hong Kong Polytechnic University next month for a conference. I've read about its role in the 2019 protests, and the campus itself looks incredible from the photos – that brutalist… more

The student vibe at PolyU is pretty intense – a real mix of hardworking academics and fiercely independent spirits. It's not all protests, though that definitely left its mark. Think buzzing energy, lots of late-night study sessions fueled by cheap noodles, and a strong sense of community, especially amongst those in the same programs. For lesser-known spots… well, the campus is a maze. Wander off the main paths, explore the older buildings – some have these amazing little hidden courtyards, tucked away and super quiet. You might stumble across some surprisingly beautiful spots that aren't in any tourist brochures. Check out the library's upper floors – the views are fantastic and way less crowded than the lower levels. And honestly? Just get lost. That’s half the fun of PolyU. You’ll find cool stuff you'd never expect.

Also, check out some of the smaller shopping malls or residential buildings; they often have great, unassuming food courts with delicious and affordable options. Happy eating!
