Oxford castle is a castle with a history of more than 1000 years. Oxford castle can be traced back to Henry I's time. Originally, Henry I's daughter Matilda should inherit the throne. Unexpectedly, her cousin Steven repented of usurping the throne and imprisoned Matilda. After that, Britain fell into civil war. Oxford castle was once in ruins until it was commandeered as a prison by the government in the 19th century.

We didn't climb the top of the tower, because we didn't feel that it was so commanding point to climb to the top. The scenery we saw may be general. Haha, we can climb the top in more time.

I have come to the center of the city several times, but I didn't get in. I don't feel like I need to go to a special scenic spot.

原来这里是牛津城堡,有1000年历史,监狱作用,可以了解到犯人曾经历的可怕生活、冒险越狱和残酷刑罚。

路南就是赫赫有名的牛津城堡,城堡已经有1000多年历史了,在内战期间曾一度成为了废墟,直到19世纪被政府征用做监狱,1996年,监狱被关闭并改建为酒店,现在牛津城堡是英国一级保护建筑。

The castle is well preserved, but the tickets seem to be a little expensive. The castle itself is not on the main road, but it is not far from the main road.

牛津的民宿离牛津城堡只有几步之遥,一桥之隔。往前走几分钟穿过商场便来到热闹的皇后街和高街。

此次英国游,从南到北,一路经过近20座城堡,有的是原就列入了行程计划,如温莎城堡,卡纳封(爱德华)城堡,康威城堡,爱丁堡城堡,伦敦塔等。有的则是路过顺道参观。如牛津城堡,加的夫城堡,邓巴顿城堡等。
