Here is the unopened love letters and equations floating in the Kang River&#39;s footprints of Newton, Byron and Hawking on the stone road of the college specimen. Some people say that here is like the open-air version of Hogwarts. Some people say that the apple tree that hit Newton&#39;s head is planted here but Xu Zhi Mo revealed the opportunity a hundred years ago - &quot;My eyes are the bridge that taught me to open&quot; always come to Cambridge to collect a flowing feast. When the evening passes the sigh bridge of St. John&#39;s College, you will hear Xu Zhimo whisper in the wind: &quot;Quiet is parting, silence is the bridge tonight&quot;

Having a boat trip in Cambridge can give a good experience of punting on the River Cam and also get lots of interesting stories about each college at the University of Cambridge. However, the cost of it is quite expensive.

Trinity College

There is a statue of Henry VIII at the entrance to Trinity College. There is an apple tree on the green lawn at the entrance of the College, which is the source of Newton&#39;s law of gravity. When you enter the courtyard of the College, the magnificent building brings a sense of awe. The front hall of the church is filled with jade statues of famous graduates from Trinity College, including Newton, Bacon, Tennyson and others.

The Corpus Clock

This photo was taken at night, so the clock is a little unclear. However, standing in front of it and watching it ticking forward, I still feel a little nervous. After all, no one can control time.
