Ewha Womans University

Ewha Womans University (Korean: 이화여자대학교, Hanja: 梨花女子大學校) is a private women's university in central Seoul, South Korea.

 It is one of the city's largest institutions of higher learning and also the world's largest female educational institute.It is one of the best-known universities in South Korea, and often considered to be the top women's university there. Ewha was founded in 1886 by the American Methodist Episcopal missionary Mary F. Scranton.

"Ewha" is a Sino-Korean term for "pear blossom". While the lack of an apostrophe in "Womans University" is unconventional, the use of "Woman's" rather than "Women's" was normal in the past.
