GoodBye, My Green Campus
Some years ago, I got my first job as a college teacher in Chengdu,Sichuan. That’s a very small college but has long history. I love the green campus so much and can still remember every detail of there.
But my friends told me all the buildings of there would be dismantled in no days, and the college would move to another place. It’s so sad to know the news.

Yeah, I don’t understand why people there always love new buildings, I love old ones with long history too.

The campus looks very green indeed. It is interesting to see all the greeneries even on the wall. It’s a pity to see such a unique campus being pulled down. It should be preserved as an Eco-building. I can imagine the freshness of the air in the campus.

Agree with you,BK.
It takes many many years to get such greeneries full on the wall.That’s a kind of value, Not only on worth.

Hi iWalk,
wow this is an amazing structure. Awww I wish there were more of those things around. It is a sad thing that this building may be gone. I would love to save buildings like this.
Hope things are well for yah. xoxo

Yeah, Metz, Everytime I see such things, I hope I can have enough power to save them. But I met too many and could do nothing.
Maybe it’s expense of fast growing.

Wow! These are stunning buildings, but I have always wondered about such buildings: don’t creatures such as snakes, especially, find the creeping ivy a very good place to hang out? I always thought there is the real risk if you left your window open that you will find one in your room, in pursuit of a lizard or something

I reckon it must be hard to maintain.
Why would they wanna destroy such a nice historical building?

I don’t understand either,Cashmere.
I don’t know why many big cities are busy to destroy historical buildings and streets, then build a new old-style one.

That’s our office, Jam.
Though we didn’t need work there everyday, we can prepare our teaching materials at home then.

很美丽的学校！ 听到您以前在那里教书，会有一些深厚的感情，学校要被拆，我可以了解你的新情。。
可能是社会进步，发展，有些东西得让位，在我这里也一样，旧的地方，慢慢的不见了，但是，还有一些得到保留！

是的，在快速发展的时代，我们总在为经济发展让步，也总是在经济积累达到一定程度之后，我们才想起曾经的代价，和那些已经无法挽回的文化和历史的积淀。
在这一点上，很欣赏欧洲人，他们多能在历史和现代之间，找到可贵的和谐和平衡。

Those buildings are beautiful and it is really sad that they are going to get pulled down. That is the nature of man’s creations though. They just don’t last forever. At least youy got your memories (as well as some nice snapshots!)

Thanks my friend, Long time no see!
Yeah, Fortunately I took these photos at last year when I visited old friends there. If I knew that’s the last chance, I would take more….
