→ Nanjing University & Nanjing University Library
Located near the center of the city for which it is named, the Nanjing University is one of the oldest universities in the world and one of the Four Great Schools of Syrunn. It has been a pioneer in many fields in Ri Yan, such as literature, art, history, philosophy, religion, astronomy, alchemy, engineering, and business studies. A fair amount of Ri Yanese royalty and nobility attend the university, but it has also produced a great many of Ri Yan's most prominent thinkers, writers, and poets throughout the ages. The university accepts people of all ages and stations, but most usually only upper-class people can afford tuition. The university's library, sometimes referred to as the Da Du Shu Guan, or "Great Library" in Common, is one of the oldest in Syrunn. It houses hundreds of thousands of books, manuscripts, and scrolls from all over the world, written throughout the ages, many of which are rare and priceless artifacts. It is currently the largest and most extensive library on Syrunn.
