Oxford is essentially a student city. It's university consists of many colleges which are basically little universities in themselves. Oxford's trademark are its honeycoloured buildings and the sense of history they convey.

| Favourite spots: |
|
The river where the students train for the rowing competitions. The best spot is if you walk down from Christ College.
|
|
| What's really great: |
|
The historic feel of the town (some of the colleges stem from the 12th century!).
|
|
| Sights: |
|
Magdalen College. The Radcliffe Camera. Christ College.
|
|
| Hangouts: |
|
The Turf Tavern - one of the oldest pubs in Oxford. It's really cute and you can sit outside and roast marshmallows or chestnuts in the open fires.
