Where Knowledge Meets Mystery – England in Colour
Written By Lukas Mari
After a cloudy start in Cambridge, the journey continued south — and so did the weather.
Oxford greeted me with blue skies and an unexpected gift: I happened to arrive on a University Open Day, which meant I could slip in among the prospective students and explore parts of the colleges usually hidden from view. Grand halls, peaceful cloisters, ancient libraries — it was a rare look behind the curtain of one of the world’s oldest academic institutions.
From there, I wandered west.
Stonehenge stood still and timeless in the early light — a stark contrast to the liveliness of Bath, where golden stone and summer light gave the city a soft glow.
With the change in weather, the colour returned — and with it, a new rhythm to this trip.
