If you haven't raced along, but have stopped to enjoy all the key points of this tour, it's probably time to stop for lunch or a drink. You will find a choice of restaurants and cafes inside Oxford's very colorful, Victorian Covered Market.

The market also has plenty of shops to satisfy that acquisitive urge most travelers get, sooner or later. You can buy flowers, clothing, loads of shoes, jewelry, cheeses and wines and all sorts of interesting things in this warren of shops.

Take a break for some retail therapy before tackling Oxford south of the High Street on another Oxford walk.
