il Giardino Romantico

這是劍橋Walking Tour的後半段。上圖中所見到的，是稍後要划船的地點。不過請稍安勿躁，先來瞧瞧女王學院吧。

This is the second part of the Cambridge walking tour. The photo above is a picture of the place to be if you wish to go punting. That's for later, though. Let's focus on Queen's College first for now.

我想相較於國王學院，王后學院大家可能比較不熟悉）。你不可不知：劍橋大學本身是由許多學院組成的。根據導遊的說法，劍橋（其實牛津也類似）不是你有錢就進得去的。大多數人都是從不知道什麼時候開始就開始接受它們這套系統的教育。頂尖的學生才有機會入學。王后學院是由亨利六世妻子（瑪格麗特．安茹）於1448所建立。上圖中的建築物，可是劍橋最古老的建築物（數學橋＆校長室）

I guess most of us are more familiar with King's College. It must be known, that Cambridge University is formed by the combination of various colleges. Not unlike its rival, Oxford, this is not the kind of place where money is the simple solution. Most people began the Cambridge system earlier in their academic life, and only the top ones are offered places in colleges. Queen's College was founded by the wife of King Henry VI, Margaret of Anjou. The picture you see above is a picture of the oldest building in Cambridge.

天仙念： 雖然walking tour很好玩，學到很多。不過來劍橋要有心理準備，因為觀光客真的太多！一點都不像在英國...
