Cambridge
Charming and historical city full of greenery — this is Cambridge. The city that gave the world Pink Floyd, educated 89 Nobel Prize winners, and became the birthplace of modern football rules.
Overview
The first thing that comes to might when thinking about this city might be iconic Cambridge University. But there are plenty of reasons to live in this city even if you’re not a student. Think of a compact place filled with beautiful architecture, stunning parks, and a wide range of restaurants for every taste. What’s more, it is well-connected to London and other cities around. Although the cost of living (and property prices) are rather high, you will never regret living in this city.
Business & Economy
For the last few years, Cambridge consistently appears in the top three on the list of best UK towns and cities to work in, so any young professional should take this into consideration choosing a place to live. Also, it is in the heart of the Silicon Fen — area, brimming with software, biotechnological, and electronics companies, such as AstraZeneca, Raspberry Pi, and ARM. Of course, such interest in this area is due to the proximity of Cambridge University and its brilliant students and alumni.
Cuisine
Many locals love Cambridge for the variety of foods it offers. This relatively small town has anything you can possibly think of when it comes to dining. There are four Michelin Star restaurants, such as Parker’s Tavern and Navadhanya, small and cozy local pubs, family-friendly cafes, tea rooms, and so many more! Of course, the selection of street food is also enormous.
Historical
History is another trump card of Cambridge. This city was founded in the 1st century and avoided being destroyed by World War II like many other places in Europe, which results in an abundance of landmarks from different eras. Some of the most remarkable buildings include King’s College Chapel, executed in English Gothic style and medieval churches, such as St. Bene’t’s Church and Round Church.
