Oxford is great and well worth a visit, no matter where you are. My bf from Australia just visited for the first time and loved it here. The food is absolutely out of this world! Probably some of the best in the world. Oxford also boasts being very cultural and literary and historical. Rowan Oak is here. Square Books is here. University is here. There are a host of great shoppes, restaurants, bars, galleries, cafes, etc. here to see. Definitely worth a visit. Come on down!
