Aarhus University is architectural interesting because it is blending in its surroundings, both in the University Park and the Nobel Park.
Designed by the Danish architect C. F. Møller, Aarhus University is recognised internationally for its stylish, yet sympathetic architecture and for how it blends with the contours of the surrounding parkland. Aarhus University offers unique and quite different opportunities for research and education across all fields of education – for the betterment of students, researchers, authorities, and commerce.
Aarhus University is a world-class architectural experience, by some considered one of the most beautiful universities on the planet, including Huffington Post, Culture Trip, and Skyscanner who have expressed high praise of the university. Clear-cut shaped and gable-roofed, the yellow-brick buildings blend in beautifully with the lush greenness of the University Park. A stroll in the park is a wonderful experience and one not to miss when visiting Aarhus.

Aarhus Docklands (Danish: Aarhus Ø) is a new neighbourhood and construction site in Aarhus, Denmark.
Construction of Aarhus Docklands began in 2008 and most buildings and constructions have been finished as of 2018. The project will convert the former container port, Nordhavn in the Port of Aarhus, to a new residential, educational, commercial and recreational area, consisting of high rise buildings of modern architectural designs, seaside promenades and a network of canals.
Fully developed, the Docklands neighbourhood is intended to sustain 10-12,000 residents and 10,000 jobs in an area equalling the size of Trøjborg, an adjacent neighbourhood. Aarhus Docklands offers a view of the Aarhus Bay and there is just a short distance to the inner city.
Aarhus Docklands is part of the larger Peri-urban Harbour-areas (De Bynære Havnearealer) comprising nearly all of the old harbour district along the coastline. It is among the largest harbourfront development projects in Europe.
