Cambridge Site
Out and About
Cambridge is located about 60 miles (100 Km) from London.
Its university was founded in the twelfth century by disaffected academics from Oxford University.
The oldest building from that time is in St John's College but the oldest surviving college is Peterhouse.
Today many tourists visit Cambridge each year to see the historic university, its buildings and the beautiful Backs.
King's College Chapel is the most famous building in Cambridge. Outside, the best views of the chapel are from Kings Parade and Queen's Road, and from its entrance via Senate House Passage or Trinity Lane.
