No one can beat the beauty that is Oxford! With its centuries old colleges and adorable streets, there is no wonder that Cambridge is jealous. I arrived in Oxford around 11am and took a tour of the alleys before heading into the Bodleian Library. The building itself was as grand as could be. It was no question of why it took 12 years to create. My favorite part about it was the Duke Humphries library. I couldn’t take any pictures because like John Soane there are specific rules, but the divinity school before it was a prime example of old school sponsoring. The ceiling was covered in insignias from people who donated money to finishing it. I loved seeing it. And I loved seeing the other colleges as well!
