Hi guys! I am Qiyan Wu and I’m from China.
So I’m currently doing my second year now, and I will go into my third year this September.
My study is Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence which is based at Jubilee Campus.
So for this video, I’ll talk about my favourite places in Nottingham and the things I love
about my university.
So for my first favourite place in Nottingham I will recommend Wollaton Park. The park is
where the movie Batman was filmed. The castle in the park is the home of Batman. The castle
is over five hundred years old now and it has been turned into a natural history museum
with a collection of items left behind by the former owner of the castle.
So the second thing I want to talk about is a Vietnam restaurant called Coco Tang in the
city centre. If you want to know the location, you can just simply Google it because it’s
quite easy to find. They have the best pho in Nottingham. Every
time me and my friends go to the place will definitely order that. Trust me, you have
to try that. And their cocktails are awesome too. They
even offer a student discount for that, so if you go there don’t forget to bring your
student card.
So the third thing I want to talk about is the libraries in the University. So for my study,
which is Computer Science, we always have a lot of coursework to accomplish. So if I
want to do some work, the library would be the best place to go.
On Jubilee Campus, there are basically two libraries you can go to. One is just next
to the Exchange Building which is a very conspicuous building on the river. And the other one is
inside the Business building. And on University Park campus, there are George Green, Hallward
Library and also the student learning centre which you can choose.
The fourth thing I want to talk about is shopping in Nottingham. So first of all, we students
all have discounts for most of the shops in Nottingham, so before you go shopping don’t
forget to bring your student card. Or you can just simply register on Unidays.
If you want to buy clothes, there’s H&M, Urban Outfitters and Zara. If you want to
buy phones or laptops, there’s Vodafone and Three. And there are also other shops
like Flannels, White Company and Kiehls,. So, basically you can buy whatever you want
in Nottingham which is quite convenient to shopping in Nottingham.
The last thing I want to talk about is sports in Nottingham. First, there are a lot of societies
at the Uni. You can choose whatever interests you to join, like tennis, football or even
skydiving. And on the other hand, there are a lot of
gyms in the city. The University has its own gym with a membership fee on both Jubilee
Campus and University Park Campus. And I think Nottingham is also very good for doing outside
activities like jogging in the morning or even fishing.
So, basically that is all I want to talk about my favourite things in Nottingham. I hope
that will help you and see you in September!
