We traveled to the city of Oxford yesterday and got to see the prestigious Oxford University. Each individual program has its own housing, dining hall, and chapel. The dining hall when Harry Potter and his laddies eat is actually from one of the halls on this campus (but they wouldn't let us in). The school has been around since the early 1800's. They have lots of traditions like a any Ivy League school and you can tell they are stuck up about it (based on the tour guide).

This portal overlooks the grass that you get charged $28 for if you are caught walking on.The chapel

The dining hall where they eat together three times a day. They are required to where their Oxford Robes as well!
Downtown is filled with Victorian style buildings (and a strange man, if you can find him)

  1. You mean the weirdo standing in the middle of the street? If you see Harry or Ron tell them "Hi" for me and I'm looking forward to seeing their movie.
