Travel to Oxford

Oxford is strongly identifiable as a university town, with its medieval college architecture serving 30,000 students. The University of Oxford is the oldest university in the English-speaking world, comprised of 39 colleges. The history of Oxford is twined around the growth of Oxford University, though Oxford citizens had what could charitably be described as a love/hate relationship (little of the former and a heaping helping of the latter) with the students who have flocked to the Oxford University colleges since at least the 12th century. The colleges of Oxford University are studies in contrast, ranging from the early medieval grandeur of Brasenose to the Tudor Christ Church, and the more modern lines of Keble College.
