College gardens and punts on the Cam
Cambridge is smaller and greener than Oxford, its colleges set along the River Cam with lawns that sweep down to the water. King's College Chapel, with its fan-vaulted ceiling, is one of the finest examples of late Gothic architecture in England, and its choir is world-famous. Punting along the Backs past Trinity, St John's and the Bridge of Sighs is the classic experience. The Fitzwilliam Museum is excellent and free, and a walk or punt to Grantchester for tea in the orchard completes the picture.
