The University of Arizona (UA) is home to thousands of students who enjoy its amazing amenities daily.

I have created a list of 10 spots that are great places to sit and relax, bask in the Arizona sun, or study before an exam. Some of these places are widely known and others you may walk by everyday and never actually take the time to stop, take a seat, and look around and the beauty this campus holds!

1. Highland Bowl.

The Highland Bowl is a circular formation located near Highland Avenue. It is a giant grass circle with seats around the perimeter of it. This is a great place to meet with friends, or relax alone.

2. Scented Leaf Tea House and Lounge.

The Scented Leaf is located on University Boulevard, right off of the UA campus. This tea house is an amazing place to relax and get down to business or socialize with friends. Not to mention it has free wifi and a never ending selection of delicious teas and snacks. Take a peek into this zen little slice of heaven the UA offers.

3. UA Main Library.

The library is home to midnight-studiers and exhausted test-takers, but it can also be a great place to relax and get your work done for the day. In the library there are several different floors with desks, chairs and computers, all the amenities to take a break and focus on things you need to get done.

4. Benches next to the mall.

This row of benches is a great place to rest if you are a few minutes early for class. You can watch all of the excitement going on in the heart of campus, but still have enough silence to lean back and enjoy the sun.

5. Behind Modern Languages.

This hidden gem is a seating area that is located behind the Modern Languages building. If I can tell you anything about this spot, it is that it is one of the quietest, non-busy areas on the entire campus. This oasis is full of sunshine, peace, and warmth!

6. ILC.

Or, in other words known as the Integrated Learning Center. This area is a collection of class rooms that is actually a floor lower than the rest of the main campus. This area has tons of benches, not to mention has a vending machine with drinks and snacks! This might not be the first place one would think to go to relax but it could become your new favorite!

7. Lounge in the Union.

This seating area is located in the Student Union Memorial Center! It has many tables with power outlets, allowing you to eat and enjoy your food as well as work on homework, or watch a Netflix episode at the same time!

8. Big Comfy Chairs in Bookstore.

Located just inside the doors of the bookstore are eight large sitting chairs for anyone to take a seat in and take a moment to relax. There is also a Starbucks inside of the bookstore, so, grab a drink and take a seat!

9. Sitting Area Underneath the Union.

Below the Union and next to Cellar Bistro is this relaxing area with tables. Here you can grab a meal and enjoy the cool air-conditioning of this covered structure.

10. The UA Mall Itself!

Every University of Arizona Student knows what the "Mall" is. Our large strip of grass that reaches almost the entire length of our campus provides not only a beautiful scenic view, but also a space almost anywhere for its students to take a seat and enjoy its comfort.
