Oxford has had a long and distinguished history owing largely to its remarkable university. A brief walk around the city is all it takes to see buildings from every English architectural period since the arrival of the Saxons. The beautiful architecture of Oxford\'s college buildings, the imposing Oxford Castle and the iconic Radcliffe Camera all hark back to different eras in the city\'s past, and no less interesting are the accounts of the many great people who throughout the ages have walked beneath the city\'s dreaming spires.
