Cambridge
Cambridge is a university city in Cambridgeshire, England 50 miles north of London. The town has surpassed periods of farmstead settlements dating back 3,500 years from the Roman era, the Medieval period, Early Modern Cambridge, the Industrial Era and currently in the 20th century. Centuries old of history is transparent in the local government, commonly played sports, architecture and agricultural production. Amongst the green open spaces, fields of daffodils, and grazing cattle is the prestigious University of Cambridge founded in 1209 by runaway Oxford scholars. The university birthed philosopher Sir Isaac Newton, writer Lord Byron, molecular biologists Francis Crick and James Watson, and many more Noble Prize winners.
Visitors can stroll through King’s College and walk the halls of many influential people before them, sit through a university lecture open to the public, punt down the River Cam, admire wonderful art and sculpture in the Fitzwilliam Museum, and cycle the Backs Gardens. The annual summer festivities encourage visitors to participate and appreciate the town, its history, and magnificent architectures.

Protected since 1951, its valleys, woodlands and lush green make this beautiful picturesque countryside an ideal area to experience the great outdoors. Surrounding Windermere are towns and villages where tourists can shop, eat and rest. Approximately one mile from the lake lays a railway station, Lakeside Pier and Aquarium of the Lakes where the world of wildlife and freshwater creatures are revealed. It’s a destination spot for cruises, sailors, rowers and swimmers, but that doesn’t mean adventure is limited! There is Treetop Trek Aerial, Climb 365 and High Adventure Balloon Flights for extreme adrenaline enthusiasts, family-friendly cycle fun, hound trailing, horseriding and even bird spotting.
