You walk around the NTU campus every day on your way to lectures, lunch or the bus stop… but do you know what stood here before NTU? (Listen closely, we're about to tell you)
Before NTU became the university we know today, these rolling hills were home to Nanyang University (Nantah, 1956–1980) and Nanyang Technological Institute (NTI, 1981–1991), watching generations of students and staff pass through its hallowed halls.
NTU Museum is proud to present The Nanyang Spirit Audio Tour in conjunction with its creators NTU History — a self-guided 90-minute audio journey across 7 historic campus landmarks narrated through first-hand alumni anecdotes and rare oral histories.
🗺️ The 7 Chapters on the Trail:
📍 Stop 1: Nantah Arch

📍 Stop 3: Chinese Heritage Centre
📍 Stop 4: Nanyang Lake
📍 Stop 5: Student Services Centre
📍 Stop 6: North Spine Academic Complex
📍 Stop 7: Nanyang Auditorium
🗓️ We’ll be spotlighting each stop weekly with our favourite audio snippets and uncovering hidden campus lore, archival photos, and heartwarming anecdotes of life in NTU from alumni and staff.
