  关于牛津和剑桥,我们实在有太多太多要去参观的理由。

  其一:中国学生的名校情结。国内北大清华每年暑假就俨然变成中小学生们的朝圣地。而今面对世界级的学府又怎能错过?

  其二:名人效应。康桥、流水、徐志摩和林徽因的爱情……任何一个中国人漫步在剑桥的石板路上都会忍不住吟诵那流传于世的“轻轻的我走了……”

  其三:电影效应。《哈利波特》、《黄金罗盘》、《牛津迷案》……近年来影视作品似乎对牛津小镇情有独钟。不过这里历史感厚重的建筑的确也担得起光影流转。

  注:把剑桥牛津并在一起介绍更多还是因为他们的名声一样响亮。绝不表示他们在地理位置上的相邻。如果你想要一天之内参观完这双份的去处,除非你是超人,用飞的。
 

TOP 4: Oxford
 
  The University of Oxford is the oldest university in the English-speaking world. It is first mentioned in 12th century records. Oxford's earliest colleges were University College (1249), Balliol (1263) and Merton (1264). These colleges were established at a time when Europeans were starting to translate the writings of Greek philosophers. These writings challenged European ideology – inspiring scientific discoveries and advancements in the arts – as society began seeing itself in a new way. These colleges at Oxford were supported by the Church in hopes to reconcile Greek Philosophy and Christian Theology。

  Cambridge is best known as the home of the University of Cambridge, one of the world's premier universities. In 1209, students escaping from hostile townspeople in Oxford fled to Cambridge and formed a university there[4] The oldest college that still exists, Peterhouse, was founded in 1284. One of the most impressive buildings in Cambridge, King's College Chapel, was begun in 1446 by King Henry VI. The project was completed in 1515 during the reign of King Henry VIII。

  Lyme Park is a large estate located south of Disley, Cheshire, England. It consists of a mansion house surrounded by formal gardens, in a deer park in the Peak District National Park. The house is the largest in Cheshire,and a Grade I listed building. The estate was granted to Sir Thomas Danyers in 1346 and passed to the Leghs of Lyme by marriage in 1388. It remained in the possession of the Legh family until 1946 when it was given to the National Trust。

  The house dates from the latter part of the 16th century. Modifications were made to it in the 1720s by Giacomo Leoni, who retained some of the Elizabethan features and added others, particularly the courtyard and the south range. It is difficult to classify Leoni's work at Lyme, as it contains elements of both Palladian and Baroque styles.[5] Further modifications were made by Lewis Wyatt in the 19th century, especially to the interior. Formal gardens were created and developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The house, gardens and park have been used as locations for filming and they are open to the public。

TOP 6: Roman Bath
 

  如果有人把巴斯封为英国最美丽的小城,那真是当之无愧的。这个坐落在英国南部的小城可谓是得天独厚:拥有罗马时期的温泉和乔治时代的半月型建筑,从古至今都是备受英国人追捧的度假胜地。不知道大家有没有看过去年的电影《公爵夫人》?其中有一段就是他们到巴斯取景的。也的确是反映那个时代贵族们的生活习惯,巴斯就是他们每年固定要去小住的地方。著名女作家简•奥斯汀也曾在这里生活过几年,如今城里还有她的纪念馆。


  另外,如果你去到这里,还有一家传说中“全英国最好吃的薯条”不能错过。具体地址不用知道,到了当地随便找个人来问就好了。


  The city of Bath was first established as a spa resort with the Latin name, Aquae Sulis ("the waters of Sulis" 水神苏黎士) by the Romans in AD 43 although verbal tradition suggests that Bath was known before then.They built baths and a temple on the surrounding hills of Bath in the valley of the River Avon around hot springs, which are the only ones naturally occurring in the United Kingdom。


  Edgar was crowned king of England at Bath Abbey in 973. Much later, it became popular as a spa resort during the Georgian era, which led to a major expansion that left a heritage of exemplary Georgian architecture crafted from Bath Stone. As City of Bath, the city became a World Heritage Site in 1987. The city has a variety of theatres, museums, and other cultural and sporting venues, which have helped to make it a major centre for tourism, with over one million staying visitors and 3.8 million day visitors to the city each year。


  The city has two universities and several schools and colleges. There is a large service sector, and growing information and communication technologies and creative industries, providing employment for the population of Bath and the surrounding area。
