It is known for its distinctive collegiate structure with a total of 38 Oxford colleges, a selection of which were used as a filming location for the Harry Potter films.
Oxford is an architectural delight and the city is famed for its beautiful buildings including Christ Church college, The Bridge of Sighs, and probably one of the most well-known and photographed buildings, The Radcliffe Camera.
