The city and university  exude a timeless charm with their historic landmarks with breathtaking architecture. In this video, wander through Cambridge’s bustling paved streets, soak in the festive holiday market, glide along the River Cam on a punt, and explore the iconic St John’s and Murray Edwards Colleges, with insights from a current MPhil in Population Health Sciences student offering a glimpse into academic life.
