Unisite II is a dormitory campus designed for students and academitions near Trakya University in Edirne, Turkey.

Edirne is an important cultural identity carrying rich heritage until today, reflecting all qualities of the developments and cultural relations between Anatolia and Europe. Edirne is a bridge between European and Balkan countries. In Edirne, with a quality of simply an open-air museum with historical background; Selimiye of Architect Sinan, The Complex of Sultan Bayezid II, Health Museum within the scope of Trakya University. In addition to historical heritage, Edirne has a growing young people potential due to the Trakya University. There is a distinct need for new student housing due to rising student numbers in the last years in Edirne.
