The charm of Oxford is unforgettable. It is the world of
Alice in Wonderland and Hogwarts Hall in the Harry Potter film. The city has
a long history, largely but not exclusively, due to the University. The city
itself is a "wonderland" and it takes only a few moments for the
tourist to become immersed in its magical atmosphere.
The fossils and rocks in the surrounding hills reveal that
the area was at one time completely covered by the sea.
The University is one of the oldest in Europe with some
evidence of organised teaching going back to 872.
