Brief introduction of the history of Tsinghua University
The Tsinghua University is located in theTsinghua Garden, which was the imperial garden in Qing dynasty. In 1901, Eight-Nation Allianceinvaded Beijing and forced the Qing dynastygovernment to sign the BoxerProtocol. According to this Protocol, Qing government need to pay a large number of reparationsto the aggressor countries. In 1911, based on a part of this reparations, a School named“Tsinghua Xuetang”was built asPreparatory School for students to study in United States.“Tsinghua Xuetang”was the predecessor of today’s Tsinghua University. The name“National Tsinghua University”was adopted in 1928.
清华学堂Tsinghua Xuetang
Tsinghua Xuetang is one of the landmarks of Tsinghua University. Xuetang means school, a place for teaching. The construction of Tsinghua Xuetang was completed in 1916. It was one of the main buildings of the school at its early stage.
In the last few decades, it was used as teaching building and classrooms. Now it is the offices of some main administration departments: the Graduate School, the undergraduate academic department and the R&D department.
The Old Gate was demolished in 1960's. Donated by Tsinghua University Alumni, it was rebuilt in 1991, following the original design.
日晷Sundial
The sundial is a classical timer used in ancient times. It is a gift given by the graduates in 1920. It serves as a reference for class time for students, and also a reminder to them that every second of time should be valued.
In 1933, after the expansion of the residential area, the former enclosing wall was moved to further out. A new gate, now Tsinghua'sWest Gate, became the new main entrance. Ever since, the original gate has been called Er Xiao Men (means "the second school gate").
The four Chinese characters painted above the main entrance read "Tsinghua School", the first name of the institution when it was founded. The inscription was by Na Tong, a Great Scholar and Grand Minister in late Qing Dynasty.
Tsinghua Xuetang served as classrooms for senior students at the beginning of the school. After the east part was built, it remained a dormitory for senior graduating students for several years. In 1925, the Institute of Chinese Classics was set up here. The renowned“Four Tutors" in the Institute of Chinese Classics: Liang Qichao, Wang Guowei, Zhao Yuanren, Chen Yinque,(梁启超、王国维、元任、寅恪)the famous archeologist Li Ji, and litterateur Wu Mi were brought together.
It was carved with the motto "Actions speak louder than words" in both Chinese and Latin characters together with the date of construction. Today, the motto "Actions speak louder than words" has already become the school spirit of Tsinghua University.
The Sundial is made of silver covered with enamel. The Sundial stood in front of Tsinghua’s grassy quadrangle before the foundation of People’s Republic of China (about 1948). The planar surface of the sundial turned to be stony then, since the former silver one covered with enamel disappeared. Tsinghua often had struggle meeting on the grassy quadrangle during the Cultural Revolution. The oval grassy quadrangle was changed into a rectangle and the Sundial was removed in order to enlarge the field. The place where the Sundial used to stand was stuffed with cement, and the Sundial was missing. After the Cultural Revolution, Tsinghua began to collect the old things of the university, and the Sundial was found in a pile of stones, but its planar disappeared. The Sundial we see nowadays had been repaired after that, and its planar was newly made. It was here since the 70th anniversary of the foundation of Tsinghua.

二校门The Old Gate
The Old Gate was built in 1909. The Gate wቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱs the main entrance to the school campus at that time.
At that time, the Gate was heavily guarded. In those years, underclassmen were not allowed to go out of the gate without permission from school authorities. In addition, in order to preserve the sanctity of the learning environment, outside people without permission were also forbidden to pass through the gate.
So we can see three different architectural styles of buildings in the campus of Tsinghua University. The old buildings are mainly located in the west of Xuetang Road, in the east of Xuetang Roadthere are all new buildings which was built after 1949.
泥沙馆Sedimentation Building
