A place of knowledge for more than 800 years and synonymous with university prestige, Oxford offers a group of exceptional buildings whose construction has spanned several centuries. Today, Oxford is nicknamed "The Bubble" by its inhabitants because it is a self-sufficient city, living in a world governed by academic traditions far more alive than in Cambridge. The city and its colleges have inspired artists from Lewis Carroll to the Harry Potter films. Oxford is also, along with Manchester, one of the cities with a real music scene: the Supergrass made their debut there, as well as Radiohead and Unbelievable Truth.
