Only in Bucks County: A Winter Walk at Princeton University

I had a business lunch in Princeton last week and decided to stroll the University campus afterwards. With the trees bare, the architecture of the buildings really stood out, and I felt more like I was in Europe than New Jersey. Each building is designed very differently but they all fall under the style of Collegiate Gothic. There are many impressive English Tudor and Gothic-style buildings throughout the campus. Princeton University is close to Bucks County and is the perfect place to grab lunch and go for an architectural stroll!

Alexander Hall



Henry Hall, student housing.

Blair Arch

Nassau Hall, Princeton's oldest building.


I purposely didn't post the names of all of the buildings I passed so that you can walk around taking your own tour of Princeton's magnificent campus! Or, take a building by building virtual tour here.

A gorgeous view as I exited the campus, even on a winter's day.
And, it turned out I parked in front of a cupcake bakery!
