Established in 1636, Harvard University is the oldest institution of higher learning in America, and one of the top most universities not only in America but in the whole world. At least six Presidents of the United States were Harvard educated. Besides, Harvard has produced many Nobel laureates, great scholars, top ranking government officials, judges and lawyers, doctors, engineers, scientists, top business excutives and CEO's, and so forth. In short, Harvard alums have always excelled in their respective fields.

The university's main campus is located in Cambridge (old name Newtowne), Massachusetts. But unlike most universities, Harvard's campus is not consolidated in one area. Harvard's campus is well spread out (and will be spreading even more in the future). The business school is technically in Boston though it is very close to Cambridge - separated from Cambridge by the Charles River. The medical school is well inside Boston and is several miles from the main Cambridge campus. Within a few years from now, many of Harvard's departments (and probably some schools also) will be relocated to Allston. Harvard has already acquired land in Allston and work to shift departments in Allston is already in progress. By the way, Harvard is also the richest university in America, may be in the whole world.

This photo article on Harvard University deals only with Harvard's Cambridge campus, but because of its close proximity from Cambridge a few pictures of Harvard Business School have also been included here.

I do hope that this article will give a good idea about Harvard to those who have never visited Harvard. Your comments/corrections will be highly appreciated as I have worked hard to create this article. This really includes a lot of pictures and descriptions!
