We couldn't figure out why the buildings looked so old, until we went to the Duke Homestead and were told that was the desired look. Visitor parking is seriously lacking (we were there on a Saturday or it would have been worse).

Duke is not only one of the top rated academic institutions in the country but visiting the campus is a visually stunning experience. The Sara P Duke Gardens are a real jewell. It has a top rated hospital and medical school, as well.
