听到oxford大家免不了想起牛津大学

非常响亮的名字让我一直觉得oxford是个非常大的城市

其实不然 名字虽大 但其实 oxford是个小镇！

刚到oxford的时候真的吓了一跳 我竟然用45分钟就把oxford走完一圈了

也太快了吧

牛津这个地方真的就是一个大学小镇

英国的第一件大学 就是牛津啦

整个牛津由30-40间学院组成

每一间看起来都古色古香 怪不得哈利波特要来这里取景

这是christ church college 哈里波特取景地之一啦

Christchurch College

这就是哈里波特用餐的地方啦

我进去的时候老幻想那些图画在动 哈哈

左边那栋是哈里波特的图书馆

ChristChurch College Main Gate

走在oxford的街上 就很容易被 梦幻的氛围 书卷的气息 影响

也难怪这里盛产了这么多名人

produce了很多世界经典梦幻故事

JKK的the hobbit, the lord of the ring, alice in the wonderland

环境或许对英国人的想象能力起了很大作用

这个地方就是”Alice in the wonderland”的发源地

世界上最古老的图书馆Bodleian Library

Bodleian Library

Hertford Bridge,也有人叫它the bridge of sigh，因为长得十分像venice的本尊

Hertford Bridge

这栋房子很特别 以前长得像这样的建筑物很盛行 可是后来就剩这么一间了

原来这么建是有原因的

房子持有人得交地税

地税是根据占地面积来算的

于是，为了增加物资内的活动面积

古人在建屋时 就把第二第三层见得比第一层大，这样即使物资变大了，地税也不会增加

牛津最古老的建筑物 NorthGate Church

原本是牛津北门的塔楼

后来与监狱连接

NorthGate church

英国小镇-牛津-非去不可！！

what always the europian, australian and american countries attract me are their culture

I don’t mean that i love their culture , what attracts me is the difference between malaysian culture and theirs

I found that i love to travel is because I can experience different kind of culture in different countries!

I think one of the features of a specific culture is building

I took photos of a couple of buildings in sydney.

I dint really have time to really look up when and why these buildings were built. I dint really have permission to enter some of these buildings. 

all these buildings looks old and seems to have a lot of stories to tell in their history

If you compare these buildings with those modern buildings in Singapore, i guess u will soon know why I am not a fans of singapore, haha

Next time, instead of reading travelling guide i should read some background information, like history, before travelling!
