Cần Quan Tâm
Oxford Castle is a thousand years of English history in one atmospheric site. Built by the Normans in 1071, it served as both fortress and prison — its stone walls have seen sieges, executions, and centuries of confinement. Today, you can climb St. George’s Tower for sweeping city views, descend into the crypt, or explore Oxford Prison, where inmates were once branded or shipped to Australia. Though partially ruined, the castle’s bones still whisper medieval secrets. It’s Oxford’s darker, grittier side — far from the dreaming spires.
Carfax Tower
Carfax Tower is the last remnant of Oxford’s 12th-century St. Martin’s Church, now standing as a stone sentinel at the city’s crossroads. Though only 23 meters tall, it offers one of the best panoramic views over Oxford’s spires — after a tight climb up a spiral staircase. The name "Carfax" comes from Latin quattuor fauces, meaning "four forks," marking the meeting point of the city’s main streets. It’s the quiet eye of Oxford’s urban storm — ancient, reliable, and slightly out of breath by the time you reach the top.

3.00The stories at the buildings are good and clear. Only the cursor of where you are is not running properly. Often he is not present where you are and how to walk. I also want to give a tip: if you are going to walk, indicate (spoken or on the app) so that you see how to walk.
Delightful!
