Oxford is a city with a unique university atmosphere with over 900 years of history. Its dreamy spires, old courtyards and bustling college streets create a unique sense of belonging to academic traditions and scientific discoveries. The city grew out of an Anglo-Saxon settlement and developed as an important commercial and educational center on the way from London to central England, which is noticeable in its architecture and street spirit.
The man-made sights of Oxford are striking in their depth and diversity: The Bodleian Library with ancient manuscripts, the Church of St. Mary, where university history began, and the Carfax Tower in the heart of the city. Christ Church Cathedral, numerous colleges, of which there are 38 at the university, as well as university halls and courtyards form the historical appearance of the city and offer the traveler many points to explore.
Natural corners in the city and its environs allow you to relax between cultural discoveries: green squares, embankments and shady alleys invite you to quiet walks.
