New Asia College, Academic campus in New Territories, Hong Kong
New Asia College is a constituent college of the Chinese University of Hong Kong nestled on a hilltop overlooking Tide Cove and Ma On Shan. The campus holds teaching and residential buildings with modern facilities designed for study, research, and student life.
The college was founded in 1949 by Chinese scholars including Ch'ien Mu, Tang Junyi, and Zhang Pijie in response to political upheaval on mainland China. Its creation reflected a determination to preserve Chinese educational ideals during a period of major transformation.
The college blends classical Chinese educational values with contemporary teaching approaches that shape how students interact and learn. Walking through campus, you notice how both traditions influence the daily rhythm of academic life.
The campus is easily navigated via New Asia Circle, a circular road connecting all major buildings and facilities. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes since the terrain is hilly and most areas are explored on foot.
The hilltop setting provides unexpected views of the surrounding landscape as you walk the circular road. This layout allows visitors to enjoy changing perspectives of the bay without ever leaving campus grounds.
