Oxford Information
Home to the oldest English university, Oxford is a city that is famous for its historic architecture, convivial residents and educational legacy.
Known throughout the globe as one of the top most colleges in the world, Oxford University has played an essential part in shaping the city’s distinguished image and creating its quintessentially English character. Thousands of students flock to Oxford every autumn to start their degrees, enjoy the beauty of the celebrated area and make their mark on British history. The mix of undergrads, postgrads, doctorate students and overseas scholars have made the city a cultural haven boasting a selection of cool eateries, bars, entertainment spots and hang outs.
In the summer many Oxfordians cycle through the city instead of opting for cars and buses because it’s cheaper, greener and healthier; in fact the best way to see the attractions is on foot. Tourists tend to visit architectural gems like Oxford Botanic Garden, Bodleian Library, Ashmolean Museum and Christ Church Cathedral where parts of the Harry Potter movie franchise were filmed. The University Park also draws in a crowd as does the hugely popular Oxford boat race team that practices on the Thames in preparation for the televised spring competition against Cambridge University.
Situated in the South East of England, Oxford enjoys a rich transport network making it ideal for tourists who want to make a visit from the capital for a day trip. Many people end up heading towards the Covered market or going for a punt on the river. Others eat lunch in a pavement cafe or opt for an Official Guided Walking Tour of the city that incorporates all of the best known sight seeing hot spots.
Oxford has been a source of inspiration for those who have lived and worked in the city like 19th century poet Oscar Wilde, writer C.S. Lewis and J.R.R Tolkien, writer of The Lord of the Rings. Today’s visitors still remark on the beauty and resonance of the area suggesting that many more bright sparks are yet to come from the renowned metropolis, canonised in print as the ‘city of dreaming spires’.
