Some Beautiful moments at Oxford.

Oxford is a nice place for people who love sightseeing.  And you know, sightseeing is pretty much compulsory in Oxford. Even popping out for a pint of milk, you'll pass some amazing historic buildings coming in your way.

 

So, take out the Digital Camera and start caturomg  the Bridge of Sighs, Christ Church College or Magdalen College on your way to one of Oxford's many pubs. Go for the student favourite of the Turf Tavern for a spot on outside pint, or, for a bit of river action, head down to the Head of the River pub for a quick one.

 

Then you can take a wander round the shops and cafés of Jericho ending up in the Duke of Cambridge or Beat on Little Clarendon Street in time for a last-minute cocktail at happy hour before leaping onto that bus home.

 

So, nice moments you can enjoy in Oxford with someone you love.
