"Oxford Playhouse sits opposite the Ashmolean Museum and plays host to some excellent acting talent. You’ll be able to see top-notch drama, akin to that found in London, but at reduced Oxford prices. There’s a huge array of performances here from drama to musicals to comedy to dance – you name it!"
"If you intend to see a show or performance while in town, you should check the listings at the individual theaters (such as the Oxford Playhouse and the Old Fire Station) and buy your tickets in advance. Explore Oxford’s Gardens & Parks"
"A post shared by Oxford Orders (@oxfordorders) on Feb 5, 2018 at 9:23am PST. Jin Jin offers a swift meal, with hearty portions and some very good elements such as satay chicken and the prawn toast. Nestled along Crowley Road, Oxford, Jin Jin offers authentic Chinese dishes in Oxford city."
"14/04/2021: I've been looking for some time for a new favourite Chinese since Kowloon House closed down (RIP lovely Kowloon House) and finally I have found it!. Jin Jin on Cowley road (just down from Tesco) is an absolute gem. Customer service is friendly and accurate."
"Pitt Rivers Museum is definitely one of the best things to do in Oxford if you like a little history or anthropology. This museum houses over half a million objects from different parts of the world and the best part is that it has no interactive displays or computers. Just dim lighting and glass cases that feels like you’ve walked into a private collection – it’s so cool to see."
"The Pitt Rivers Museum is one of Oxford’s quirkier and most interesting museums. Centred around the collection of Augustus Henry Lane-Fox Pitt Rivers, the museum opened in 1887 to showcase its anthropological treasures from around the world. The Pitt Rivers features over half a million artifacts, which together tell the story of the history of man."
"You could stay busy all day in Oxford without leaving the Pitt Rivers Museum. Housed in one of the biggest and most impressive buildings in Oxford on Parks Road, it’s stocked to the brim with artefacts from different time periods and civilisations around the world. Including masks from Mexico and pottery from Pakistan, it’s all here."
"The History of Science Museum - housed in the Old Ashmolean Building, the world's first purpose-built museum building - is a fascinating facility that specializes in the study of the history of science and the development of western culture and collecting. The museum includes the blackboard that Albert Einstein used during his Oxford lectures of 1931, and a fascinating display showing the development of clocks. Other nearby attractions include the Holywell Music Room (1748), reputedly the oldest concert hall in the world, and Kettell Hall (1620), with its beautiful chapel and fine woodcarvings."
"The History of Science Museum houses a fantastic collection of early scientific instruments from Europe and the Islamic World, including sundials and astrolabes of extraordinary beauty. Find your nearest bus stops"
