[2025 Stanford Attraction] Travel Guide for Hoover Tower (Updated Jul)

Located on the Stanford University campus, Hoover Tower is the tallest building on campus. If you climb up to the observation deck, you can see the entire campus, Silicon Valley, and even San Francisco on a clear day. The 360-degree panoramic view from the top of the tower is impressive and well worth the time to climb up. In the lobby on the first floor, there are exhibits related to President Hoover, so you can feel the historical significance. #JulyTravelSupport #OverseasTravel #USTravel #USWesternTravel #StanfordUniversity

The lobby on the first floor of Hoover Tower features an exhibition dedicated to the life, achievements, and public service of President Herbert Hoover. This includes historical artifacts such as records, memorabilia, photographs, and personal belongings from his presidency. Additionally, part of the Hoover Institution's archives is showcased, including various historical documents and research collections related to early 20th-century world wars, U.S. and international politics, maps, letters, and other significant materials.

This is a 285-foot tower located within Stanford University. When I visited, only Stanford affiliates were allowed to enter, and it operated on a reservation basis. Destination: Hoover Tower Address: 550 Jane Stanford Way, Stanford, CA 94305, USA ⭐️ The view is truly spectacular. Since there are no tall buildings nearby, you can even see San Francisco in the distance. ⭐️ It was a meaningful experience to see the organ and bells that are said to ring only during graduation ceremonies.
