English Oxford is one of the oldest university cities in England. It is located in the south of the country, right by the River Thames, in Oxfordshire. This city is often called the "city of the picturesque towers".
Nature
Oxford has many parks and green areas that encourage you to go out. In addition, around the city we find 25 reserves, and in the center - 30 hectares of parks owned by the university. We will see exotic trees, flowers and, if we can, play a real English game - cricket. In addition, we will visit the fallow deer reserve in the area of St. Magdalena, and for lovers of walks through the meadows - Christ Church College meadow, located on the Thames. True lovers of nature and botany are considered one of the world's oldest botanical gardens, located near the city center on Pink Lane, and belong to Oxford University Botanical Gardens. The garden was built in 1621 on the site of an old Jewish cemetery. If we learn that nature is not enough for us, let's move north from the city.
sights
Oxford is a bustling city day and night. Every year, millions of tourists from all over the world come to visit it, not without reason, because in the city itself we will find many attractions that will make our stay more enjoyable, and also make us want to return to this beautiful city.
It is here that is located the flagship of the city - the oldest university in the UK, Oxford University, founded around 1167. Some historians argue about this date, believing that in 1096 lectures were given at this university, and only in 1167 the university became famous and acquired more students, because it was then that the English King Henry II forbade English students to study at the University of Paris. Undoubtedly, the reputation of this university is known all over the world, and its graduates include 46 Nobel laureates, 25 United Kingdom prime ministers, numerous poets and writers, or people from our home country, such as Radoslav Sikorsky, Adam Zamoysky or Yacek Rostov. When you visit the university and numerous colleges associated with it, you should pay attention to the beautiful architecture, which is still impressive.
For popular theater performances should recommend the New Theater (musicals, ballet) and the Oxford Theater. We can also watch student art in the studio of Burton Taylor and the Old Fire Station. Connoisseurs of Hollywood cinema will find here two Odeon cinemas, as well as connoisseurs of independent cinema - Ultimate Picture Palace and Phoenix Picture House. It is worth noting that it was in Oxford that some scenes or entire films were shot, such as “X-Men: First Class” or the three parts of “Harry Potter” (“Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone”, “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets”) “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire ").
Those who love reading should be sent to numerous libraries owned by the city and the university. The Bodleian Library is the largest library where we can find, for example, the Magna Carta Freedom (Magna Carta Freedom, an act issued in 1215 by King John without Earth), Shakespeare's first folio (the first collection of 36 works by this author, better known as Mr. William Shakespeare "Comedy, History and Tragedy" - "The Comedy, Chronicles and Tragedy of Mr. William Shakespeare."
Connoisseurs of beautiful sounds will find the Oxford Philharmonic in the city philharmonic society, as well as the Oxford Bach choir and the Arcadian singers. It is worth noting that almost every university college has a choir.
