Oxford: A Wonderful Setting for Your Home
Renowned throughout the world as a centre of excellence and learning, Oxford is a cosmopolitan city with international students, tourists and the resident population creating a vibrant community.
The historic university buildings, lively shopping, museums and waterways combine to give Oxford an abundance of attractions, which bring visitors from all over the globe. By day the famous Covered Market, wonderful bookshops, two indoor shopping centres, colourful boutiques and gift shops are a delight for shoppers.
Away from the city centre the waterways offer time out from the pace of life. Two rivers and a canal run through the city centre, the Thames, Cherwell and the Oxford Canal. By night there are lively bars and cafes as well as sophisticated restaurants. The choice of live entertainment ranges from student productions, to concerts, drama, ballet, opera and musicals performed by leading national and international companies in historic settings such as the Sheldonian Theatre and Christ Church Cathedral.
