When you come to Cambridge, England, you must go to the open-air market in the city center and go to the River Conn to support the boat pole😆 When I went to the market that day, it was around 1pm on Friday. Only some fruit shops, fresh fish stalls and shops selling hand rolls were open. It was likely that they would be open on Saturday/Sunday😅 But the mutton hand rolls were really delicious 🐑 And we bought about $ 220 of salmon, snow fish fillet and face pearl dumpling back to the bnb to cook at the fish stall, super cheap 🐟🐟🐟 Another must-see, is to take a small boat ride on the Kang River, the price of about $ 300 a person 🙈 The weather was bad that day, it was raining very densely, but also because of this, the whole Kang River only had three small boats 😆 The boatman said the peak season is especially important In good weather, the whole river can have 500 small boats together at the same time😱 Normal cruise ship, the boatman will not let you support the pole, because it is very difficult to control 😆 And that day because of the rain, plus the weather is still cold, the boat company provides hot water bags for each passenger 😍 and passengers can share Large blanket and umbrella to keep warm and protect from the rain ❤️ Very courteous Along the Kang River through the Bridge of Sighs, the Math Bridge, the University College, the dormitory, the green grass field...it really has a British atmosphere and taste😌 After 45 minutes, you will be back to the starting point to board the boat. Although a little expensive, but to Cambridge, the cruise is really a signature! 🤩🙌🏻 #UK attractions #Cambridge #Gently I'm gone

If you ask me to relate a city from UK to Amsterdam 🇳🇱, I would say definitely Cambridge 🇬🇧. Locals ride the bicycles to arrive in schools, works, or shops 🚴‍♂️🚲. Also, the city has a canal in which some people could row 🛶🚣‍♂️. The other thing that I want to mention is the streets. I was amazed when I walked throughout the streets 🚶🏼‍♂️👣#Cambridge#bicycle#chapel#row . the best spots to visit : King's College Chapel💒 The River Cam 🏞️ University of Cambridge 🎓 The Corpus Clock 🕰️ Cambridge Market Square 🛒

Gently, I left as I gently came to my poem like Xu Zhimo's poem A very short stay in Cambridge on the Kang River rafting from the Bridge of Sighs to the Math Bridge with the connotation of the Cambridge boatman There are also clumsy tourist strokes. The more you collide, the more you are happy to give a smile. Although there is no sunset in the golden willow, but the people on the river will meet again River Cam is located in Cambridge The beautiful sword river of the university is also a symbol of Cambridge University. For a long time in the past, Jianhe was called the River Granta and River Cam by the locals. It is actually the same river. The former refers to the city of Cambridge. The section of Grantchester is located in the upper reaches of the river. The river is meandering. The scenery on the shore is natural and simple the latter is the lower reaches of the river. The river is wide and the water flow is gentle. It is the gorgeous architecture of the University of Cambridge campus, the College Backs.

Cambridge, a name always associated with academia, history, and ancient college buildings. But my trip to Cambridge went far beyond these stereotypes; it was filled with vitality, laughter, and unexpected surprises, making it an unforgettable adventure. The first impression upon arriving in Cambridge was its tranquility and elegance. The River Cam meanders through the city, flanked by ancient college buildings and lush green lawns, creating a picturesque scene. The air is filled with a unique scholarly atmosphere, making one feel relaxed and refreshed. This serene and peaceful ambiance immediately relieved my travel fatigue, preparing me for the upcoming adventure. Our first stop was, of course, the River Cam! We rented a traditional flat-bottomed boat and embarked on the long-awaited punting journey. Punting, a unique way to tour the River Cam, involves propelling the boat with a pole. Sitting on the boat, watching the clear river water, the college buildings on both sides, and the tree-lined riverbanks, feeling the gentle breeze on my face, was an indescribable pleasure. We took turns punting, and although we were a bit clumsy at first, we quickly got the hang of it and navigated the river freely. During the punting process, we admired the beautiful scenery along the way. Ancient bridges, exquisite buildings, and people leisurely strolling by the river formed a beautiful picture. We also saw some adorable wild ducks playing in the river, their presence adding to the picturesque river scene. While punting, we greeted other tourists and shared our joy with each other. In the afternoon, we headed to the city center of Cambridge. The architectural style here is quaint and elegant, with many buildings retaining their ancient charm, featuring red brick walls and pointed roofs, exuding a romantic English countryside vibe. The city center has many shops and restaurants, and we enjoyed a delicious lunch at one of the restaurants. The dishes were very tasty, with fresh ingredients and excellent cooking skills. After lunch, we strolled around the city center, admiring the surroundings and feeling the city's vibrancy. We discovered many lovely little shops selling a wide variety of goods, from handicrafts to specialty foods. We bought some souvenirs from a small shop to take home as mementos. We also found an independent bookstore with a wide selection of books. We browsed for a long time and found some books we liked, buying a few to take home. The bookstore owner, a very friendly old gentleman, enthusiastically recommended some local authors and books, giving us a deeper understanding of Cambridge's culture. In the evening, we visited the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. Although we don't usually talk about history, the museum's architecture itself is highly artistic, and it houses many exquisite artworks, from paintings to sculptures. We strolled through the museum, admiring these beautiful artworks and feeling the charm of art. The museum also had some tourists visiting, and their laughter added to the museum's liveliness. On our last night in Cambridge, we enjoyed a sumptuous dinner at a restaurant recommended by locals. The dishes were very delicious, with fresh ingredients and excellent cooking skills. We savored the food while reminiscing about the past few days' journey, feeling grateful and touched. The restaurant staff were very friendly, warmly introducing the dishes and recommending some local specialty drinks. As we left Cambridge, my heart was filled with reluctance. This vibrant and elegant city gave me many wonderful memories. It not only fulfilled my longing for British charm but also made me feel the warmth and friendliness between people. Cambridge, the city of punting and afternoon sunshine, will forever be etched in my memory as one of the most beautiful memories of my life. It made me understand that the meaning of travel is not about how many famous attractions you visit, but about experiencing local life, feeling the human touch, and connecting with the world. Cambridge, I will definitely come back! Maybe next time, I'll try having a picnic on the grass by the River Cam, enjoying a more leisurely Cambridge time.

How can one miss a punting trip when visiting the historic city of Cambridge? Punting in Cambridge is one of the most classic tourist activities of the University of Cambridge. Thanks to Xu Zhimo's poem 'Saying Goodbye to Cambridge Again', punting on the River Cam has become a must-do activity in Cambridge. The punters are often students from the university working part-time, and they are quite good-looking too. The punting tour allows you to appreciate the architecture along about three-quarters of the River Cam, lasting about 45 minutes. The journey passes by 7 colleges, as well as the famous Mathematical Bridge and the Bridge of Sighs, and also goes by the representative building of the University of Cambridge—the King's College Chapel.

Do you know you can do a boat ride along river cam in Cambridge, where thebkocals actually call it punting. This is where you will rent a guy to stand behind the boat and use a long oar to push the boat along the waters, just like what you see in Venice. Almost similar I shall say. The best area for punting is at the upper cam river. Each ride should take you from 45mins to almost an hour, and definitely one of a romantic river ride especially in the calm waters and nice cold weather. #celebratewithtrip #cambridge #london #punting #boatride #rivercam
