Oxford attractions

 

Being a university town, the main Oxford attractions are linked to its proud academic heritage. Its city centre is a tightly woven hive of museums and other Oxford attractions making it an easy town to explore in a relatively short time.

 

Visit Oxford University ‘s colleges, and climb Carfax Tower for a great view of the town, and a few street further admire the architectural heritage of Oxford as you wander past 16th century Oxford Cathedral, the Sheldonian Theatre and St Martin’s Church.

Children will love the weird and strange displays at the Pitt Rivers Museum, and the dinosaur skeleton at the University Museum of Natural History. To relax and enjoy one of the best Oxford parks take a walk through the University Of Oxford Botanic Garden. Then rent a punt – flat bottomed boat – for a lazy drift down the Cherwell River.

If you have time for a day trip around Oxford there are many options that’ll keep you entertained. There are several castles and mansions in the classical English tradition to explore, including Blenheim Castle with its award winning garden.

For a bird’s eye view of all the sights and attractions of Oxford jump on the red sightseeing bus that leaves from Oxford Rail Station.
