If you are a tourist or even a resident of oxford then this is one place you will want to visit. It is very beautiful - especially on a sunny day, and you will enjoy it. The buildings are grand and overly beautiful - and the grounds are well tended and lovely to wonder around.

I would recommend bringing a picnic and having it in the ground if the weather permits it.

Try and visit when the ‘Harry Potter’ hall is open - the kids will love seeing it. It is very big and grand, the students have breakfast there on sunday mornings.

Remember to bring your camera!

Walking into Christ Church for the first time is an undeniably breathtaking moment. The first thing you see is a huge quad of impeccably trimmed grass surrounding a fountain, all bordered by grand buildings.

Christ Church is one of the most famous Oxford colleges. Its alumni include thirteen British prime ministers and Einstein was a guest student. The impressive builings have been used in Harry Potter (the dining hall is where students eat daily), Brideshead Revisited and the Golden Compass, and it’s easy to see why.

It’s the only college in the world which also counts as a cathedral, which is well worth visiting. Check out the quads, especially Tom Quad and Blue Boar quadrangle. It’s best to visit when the hall and cathedral are open.

Prices:

Adults: £4.90
Family: £9.80
Concessions: £3.90
Under 5s: Free

It’s cheaper if the hall or cathedral are not open.
Price includes illustrated information guide.

Christ Church is an extremly popular College within Oxford University with 600 students. Christ Church Catherdral is also extremly well know as it sports world famous boy & girls choirs. The buildings as historic as they are, are a sight not to be missed.

If you have a day in Oxford be sure to visit Christ Church. An small entrance fee may be charged to explore the College and its spectacular gardens. But it is worth every penny especially if you just want some chill out time or a lunch break... the scenary is beautiful.
