oxford university parks

走过Radcliffe Camera，进入公园路就进入牛津大学的校园区了，再继续往前走就是牛津大学公园了。公园很大，有大片的草坪。公园的另一个门开在St Giles大街上。

average park to me. great for going for a jog, having a picnic, playing outdoor games, cricket field, and close to town.

Walked around the parks with friends and two young children. Doesn't feel like you're in a city at all, very tranquil, lots of ducks along the river, lovely scenery.

Living in Oxford you can really take for granted the beautiful outdoor spaces we have and going for a walk with a friend one summer evening in Uni parks reminded me why Oxford is a pretty good place to spend some time! We felt a bit guilty watching the runners doing their laps as we headed across the bridge and walked to the Victoria Arms in Old Marston!

we walked to the front gate of the cathedral to discover it was closed. We stumbled to the park by accident and what a pleasant surprise. You can walk through a nice little alley through the college grounds too and see the gardens.

The University Parks are located just behind the Banbury Road and at a walking distance to the city centre. The area is very large and peceful, with some rare plants and huge old trees. A part of the grassy area is used for cricket matches sometimes. One of the best things to do except walking, reading and enjoying the quiet is to do punting. The River Cherwell passes through the Parks grounds if you take a punt from Cherwell Boathouse and head toward the Queen Elizabeth House. There is also a pond with swans and ducks. On the other side of the Parks (next to the Department of Physics) there are places to buy some food (creperie). And the Parks are just a few minutes walk from the Museum of Natural History and the Pitts River Museum.

A beautiful place to go for a walk ( or take a picnic) before or after a visit to the Oxford University Museums a little further along Parks Road, it is lovely in all seasons. Magnificent trees and well planted shrubs in the formal areas of the park contrast with the wild flowers and grasses nearer the eastern edge. In late Spring and Summer, getting to the Rainbow Bridge over the Cherwell ( Thames) affords visitors a good view of the struggles to punt a straight course on the river! Occasional university cricket matches are a great way to spend Saturdays there.

One of the best recreational areas in any city in the world. Not only is entrance free but you can watch First Class Cricket for free.You can walk round the well maintained paths and fields watching the ever changing flora or run to keep fit. You can walk your dog or feed the ducks. You can sit on one of the many benches and observe the many professorial types wandering round discussing new concepts in philosophy or just talking to themselves.Just go there to relax. It's less than ten minutes walk from the City centre.

One of my favourite strolls takes me right up through the UP across the river and along to the Cherwell Boathouse. The Parks are invariably clean, well looked after places and lovely to bring the family to on a warm day. One word of caution is not to get locked in; it's not happened to us yet, but we have had some near misses!

Beautiful buildings, fascinating history. Unfortunately it was a very rainy day which spoilt things a bit

A hidden gem right in the centre of Oxford I was lucky enough to open the parks am and close the parks pm I had the privilege of seeing it early morning in the sun, what a start to the day, people out walking their dogs runningA very peaceful Place to sit and take it all in if you visit then do take a walk in the Parks great location always something going on !!!

Did not have time to look at all of it but what we saw was lovely. A notice board at the entrance gave seasonable points of interest . Nice to have a park for the other end of town as I am sure those near to or attending Keble College would appreciate.

This is a true gem right in the centre of town. The park contains a wide variety of species and is beautifully kept. You can also lie on the lawn in the summer, play cricket, sit round the lake and enjoy the stunning surroundings. All free of charge!

Great place to wander and depending on the time of year watch varsity matches in a number of sports including quiditch.

A good place in Oxford to relax and enjoy the time with friends. Usually you can find a lot of students there, which reminds that Oxford is a city of students.
