Oxford feels steeped in history at every turn, from the honey-coloured colleges to the famous Bodleian Library. There's a real sense of academic tradition, but also lots of green spaces and quiet corners. The centre can feel crowded with day-trippers, but it's worth taking your time - it's a city that rewards slow exploration.
