Summer Bank Holiday in Oxford 🔆

#summerbankholiday Spending the Summer Bank Holiday in Oxford was an absolute dream! 🌞 This city is so rich in history and culture, it’s impossible to run out of things to do. I started my day wandering around the iconic Oxford University colleges, like Magdalen College and Balliol College, which were open to visitors for a small fee of around £7 each. The stunning architecture, manicured lawns, and peaceful courtyards were like something out of a movie. 🎓 Afterwards, I headed to the Ashmolean Museum, which, to my surprise, had free entry! The museum’s collection is incredible, with everything from ancient Egyptian artifacts to modern art. 🏺 For lunch, I grabbed a delicious sandwich at the Covered Market, which is filled with local food stalls, quirky shops, and lots of character. 🥪 In the afternoon, I took a relaxing punt along the River Cherwell. It’s a bit tricky to steer, but so much fun! 🚣♀️ The view of the university and its surrounding greenery from the river is breathtaking. Finally, I ended my day at the Oxford Botanic Garden, enjoying the beautiful flower displays and serene atmosphere. 🌸 Oxford is truly the perfect spot for a summer escape, with a mix of history, beauty, and a lively, welcoming vibe. #trip #oxford #summerbankholiday #universitycity #puntingfun #ashmoleanmuseum
