With it's glorious architecture and it's fascinating traditions, the romance and beauty of Oxford have captivated visitors for centuries. This film takes you behind the walls of Oxford's ancient colleges to explore the legends and the myths, the people who helped create them and the curious and secret places which even the students don't normally see. For the first time the University and the Colleges invite you to hear their story and to visit the buildings and gardens which have contributed to Oxford's worldwide renown. You will be taken on a personal tour which ranges from the medieval origins of scholarly learning in Oxford and the traditions behind University ceremonies, to the real life settings for Lewis Carroll's Alice stories and the experience of student life today.
