3. The Dormitory Zone is situated within the campus. Residents can get up early for a walk or jog around the campus, pause by the Baisha Lake to enjoy the sight of the white geese gliding on the water, or stroll through the woods after work to refresh with phytoncide of nature. There are sports facilities such as a swimming pool, playgrounds, basketball and tennis courts, badminton courts, and weights training rooms. Restaurants and stores can be found inside and outside the campus. The added value of the facilities in a beautiful natural environment offers our staff a well-rounded environment to recharge both physically and mentally, as shown in Figures 1-9.
