Cambridge needs no introduction. It is one of the most distinguished university towns worldwide. The River Cam, from where it took its name, flows sedately amongst buildings, adding a tone of rural ambience and giving one the sense that time affects this city favourably, making it one of Britain’s true gems. Combining historic and traditional buildings with architecturally more contemporary constructions, it invites you to exploration. Theatres, museums and music halls make up a city that’s extremely student friendly and welcoming to tourists from everywhere, who flock to it each year. The highlight of the summer is the Film Festival and the Shakespeare Festival! Visitors should not neglect to go to the renowned King's College Chapel. The University of Cambridge was founded in the 13th century and is now a global centre for scientific research.
