# admin . OBAFEMI AWOLOWO UNIVERSTY, ILE-IFE, AS
A CENTRE OF TOURIST ATTRACTION
The greatness and beauty of great ife cannot be over
emphasized. The campus of Obafemi Awolowo University
can be regarded to as a center of tourist attractions with
many beautiful unique features. Today, pupils from
schools do come into the citadel on an excursion just to
behold her beauty. Even students from other universities
both in Nigeria and abroad cannot resist the greatness of
this ivory tower. Here are the features that make Great Ife
a unique centre of attraction
1) The TALLEST BUILDING in OSUN STATE is in great ife.
The Senate building which is a gigantic structure which
comprises of offices of top officers of the university and
the school Senate, is regarded to as the tallest building in
OSUN State and one of the tallest in Southwest Nigeria
2) OLYMPIC STANDARD SWIMMING POOL: You
probably might have seen a swimming pool in a hotel,
recreation centre etc but have you seen an Olympic
standard one like the one we have here in great ife? This
kind of swimming pool is rare in Nigeria but here in OAU
we are proud owner of one.
3) AMAZING STRUCTURES AND BUILDINGS: You may
think think you have seen it all, but if you step into Great
Ife, you will "bow". Outstanding structure like the Spider
building, sports complex, amphitheatre, first clas libary
etc are all world standard. The structures built during the
early days by the Israeli architecture is estimated to last
forever. Don't call yourself a student of Architecture in
Nigeria, if you haven't been to great ife
4) THE LARGEST HALL OF RESIDENCE IN WEST AFRICA
is in GREAT IFE: The Obafemi Awolowo Hall, popularly
known as AWO HALL is reportedly the largest Hall of
resident in West Africa and probably in the whole Africa.
It is often refer to as the Power house and headquarters
for great ife students. The terrain where strong men are
made.
5)OAU MUSUEM: The university is also a proud owner of
a musuem where visitors or tourists can easily access for
study, research and pleasure.
6) The university is also a good centre of attraction
because of its ORGANISED HIGHWAY AND TRAFFIC,
balance in Ecosystem, well serene environment, absence
of cultism, good power supply and many other facilities
lacking in other universities of her kind. Get ready for a
future group event during end of the session break titled
"OAU photoshoots day" where students will snap pictures
and upload it on the group during the event. The highest
like will emerge winner.
Type "Great Ife" if you are proud of Her.

A yoruba adage says it is only when you want to make gest or belittle an Elephant that you will say you just saw something that pass. I am sure most Nigeria students agree that great ife is the ELEPHANT and LION of Nigeria universities

Nothing so special at the moment, just some people trying to overhype the school by making themselves happy,not even the most beautiful in nigeria let alone africa.

The new brown cap-like roof which wasn't part of the original architecture has ruined the structure.
