I recently visited Oxford, a historic city that is already 1111 years old! An interesting fact is that it's older than Cambridge, which was founded 814 years ago. It's said that Cambridge was founded by scholars from Oxford, which adds even more charm to the city.
In my opinion, both cities are very similar in terms of architecture. It felt like I had just visited another part of Cambridge! Oxford and Cambridge have always been rivals, not only in education but also in sports, including boat races.
Another amazing fact is that J.R.R. Tolkien studied and taught at Oxford. We even found a bench with his name and dates of birth and death (see the video), and it was very impressive.
Do you like cities like these?
