"Even if something is left undone, everyone must take time to sit still and watch the leaves turn."
- Elizabeth Lawrence
The Oxford University Taiwanese Students Society (OUTSS) warmly welcomes all members and their friends or family members to join us on a beautiful autumn walk together in the University's Harcourt Arboretum. Harcourt Arboretum houses 130 acres of the world’s rare and endangered trees. It is exceptionally beautiful for its autumn colours, specially thanks to the Japanese maples. This autumn walk invites you to not only take a break from the busy life schedule, but also to learn more about how Oxford has been a hub of plant sciences research and teaching since 1621.
The walk is generously toured by Dr Henry T. H. Hung. Henry is currently the Fulford Fellow at Somerville and the Lecturer in Biology at Magdalen and St Hilda's. He researches on tropical and temperate forests.
