Manchester Asian Law Group

Snow falls from the sky onto the Old Quad on the University of Manchester campus. A yellow light lights up a lantern on the wall of a building, in front of the Beyer Building. The sky is grey and thick with snow, and the ground has a light covering of snow on it.

Merry Christmas from all of us at The University of Manchester! 🌟

We hope you're all having a wonderful winter break.

Thanks to our Instagram follower oe_perspective for the photo.

This looks great!
