Meditative Labyrinth

To the west of the Dining Centre, facing the residence buildings, a labyrinth is available for use by the campus community. Labyrinths have been found around the world, from Scandinavia to Pakistan. They're easy to use; you just walk the path. Simply walking the path will help you meditate.
