Hertz Car Rental in Oxford
The city of Oxford stands in the centre of southern England, surrounded by flat agricultural land in the valleys of rivers that join to form the Thames. It benefits from being a historic university city as well as a major motoring manufacturing centre. If you’re renting a car in oxford, it’s easy to explore both sides of the city. Most of the centre is dominated by university colleges, while the eastern outskirts lead towards the car factories at Cowley. The city has a useful complete dual-carriageway ring road but there are restrictions that you’d need to be aware of if driving through the centre.
Car rental in Oxford enables you to tour the best of the city and explore some of the outlying attractions too, including Blenheim Palace and the River Thames. In the city itself, there are scores of historic sights. The highlights include, of course, the colleges of the world-famous university. Most are built of honey-coloured stone and some date back to medieval times. There are dozens of colleges to see but the best to visit are Magdalen, Christ Church and New College. Other highlights include the ancient buildings around Broad Street, like the Bodleian Library, Sheldonian Theatre and Radcliffe Camera.
