Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The University of Cambridge has a total of 31 colleges, which are almost integrated with the urban area of Cambridge. This prestigious school has trained scientists such as Newton, Darwin, Hawking and dozens of Nobel Prize winners. Xu Zhimo and Jin Yong also studied here. The colleges were built in different periods and have different architectural styles, but most of them retain the style since the Middle Ages. The porches and walls of the school buildings are still decorated with simple and solemn statues and seals, which is really pleasing to the eye. Several colleges that are popular with tourists include King's College, Trinity College, St. John's College, Queen's College, Peter's College, Christ's College, Clare College and more. Tourists can choose the ones they are interested in and visit them in turn, but they need to check their opening hours in advance. To appreciate the beauty of Cambridge University, of course, you can't miss the Cam River cruise. Take a gondola to cruise the Jianhe River, pass under 7 elegant bridges such as Mathematical Bridge and Bridge of Sighs, and enjoy the scenery of the back gardens of 6 colleges including King's College, Trinity College and Queen's College, which are traditional, romantic and beautiful. Pickup can be found on Silver Street or Bridge Street. Visitors can choose to row on their own or join a guided river cruise.

The feeling of going back to university, walking from the train station to Cambridge University is so scenic and nice.
Cambridge, is a charming city known for its prestigious university and historic architecture. Its picturesque streets, lined with centuries-old colleges and beautiful green spaces along the River Cam, create a quintessentially British atmosphere. The city's intellectual and cultural vibrancy is palpable, with museums, bookshops, and a rich history of influential thinkers. While it can be touristy in places, the overall ambiance and academic heritage make Cambridge a delightful destination for those seeking a taste of British history and academia.
Different colleges are self-contained scenery, which is worth seeing. Unfortunately, many colleges are not open during the exam season.
The cover has magdalene. The lecturer and supervisor of the school are so good, and the classmates are so good. When can I be as good as everyone?
Lovely city and not too busy. Stunning buildings and very easy to go for tours around the colleges. Punting is expensive and a little overrated…
it was a nice calm. wonderful scenery. A beautiful place would visit again sometime
