The University of Cambridge (Cambridge) is a leading research university based in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England, using a traditional collegiate system. It is a member of the Russell Group, the Global University Presidents Forum, the Global Alliance of Universities, the International Applied Science and Technology Development Network, and the Cambridge University Health Partnership. It has fostered the "Silicon Fen" technology hub and is known as a "Golden Triangle University" and a "G5 University." The University of Cambridge is the second-oldest university in the English-speaking world and the fourth-oldest surviving university in the world.

We arrived at the Bridge of Sighs unexpectedly 🤺 We arrived at the Mathematical Bridge unexpectedly 🫆 (return trip) Because I was traveling alone, I was grouped with 5 other people (seats reversed) The weather was great, and the gondolier provided commentary in English the whole time. He even recited the poem "Saying Goodbye to Cambridge Again" unexpectedly 🤣 Qianmo Transportation 14:00-14:45 Everyone's rowing skills were top-notch! Hopefully next time I can get a better view.

İngiltere'nin başkenti Londra'da yer alan The British Museum (British Museum), insanlık tarihinin iki milyon yıllık geçmişine tanıklık eden milyarlarca esere ev sahipliği yapan dünyanın en büyük ve en köklü müzelerinden biridir. Antik Mısır mumyalarından Rosetta Taşı'na kadar eşsiz koleksiyonları ve görkemli Great Court mimarisiyle kültür ve tarih meraklılarının mutlaka görmesi gereken hazinelerle dolu muazzam bir merkezdir!

Not my first time on London Eye, but always love it!! Getting tickets from Trip.com makes it very easy and convenient, very good price too!

This is where the British king is crowned. Many members of the British royal family and aristocracy are buried here. The architecture is magnificent and worth a visit for those interested in European history and culture.

As a historical heritage of the British Empire and a royal estate, the interior of the building is magnificent, and each functional area demonstrates the luxurious quality of life of the royal aristocracy. It is well worth a visit.

The must-see exhibit is the Royal Jewels exhibition. A basic understanding of British history is recommended for a truly worthwhile visit. From here, you can see Tower Bridge and The Shard. It's easily accessible by the Underground.

After visiting Windsor Castle and Chatsworth House (Darcy Estate), we then visited Buckingham Palace. If you could only visit one palace in the UK, it would have to be Buckingham Palace. Photography is not allowed inside the royal palaces, as is the case with Windsor Castle, so we could focus on the guided tour. The gift shop after the Buckingham Palace tour has some limited-edition items available only there, making great souvenirs. I bought a Buckingham Palace + Royal Horse Stables combo ticket. The product page stated that visiting the Royal Horse Stables allowed direct entry to Buckingham Palace, but this wasn't actually the case. The State Rooms and the Royal Horse Stables are exchanged at two separate locations, not far apart. However, the ticket exchange and verification are handled by different people, and the verification personnel strictly adhere to the reserved time. The Royal Horse Stables houses the Golden Carriage used exclusively for coronation ceremonies, which is worth seeing; there are also carriages for tourists to ride in and take photos.

Westminster Abbey is honestly not highly recommended unless you want to see the graves of royalty or famous people, like Newton and Hawking, whom we found there. But if you don't enjoy visiting graves, there's no need to go.

Much cheaper than the official website, and the entry was incredibly smooth. The Great Dome was absolutely stunning; it was definitely worth the effort to climb up and overlook the east bank of the Thames. I even went to see the Harry Potter staircase from the staff. A truly fulfilling experience.
