Staring at Oxford from MPs Rebel Prison

Oxford Castle, England
Travel Oxford Castle, a beautiful building built in 1071 by a man named Norman. During the leadership of King Charles, the place was used as a prison for MPs who rebelled during the civil war.

Hundreds of years into a prison for the political interests of the kingdom, in 1996 where it no longer functioned so. Then in 2004, the site was rebuilt and filled with modern amenities. Places to stay, restaurants, and art galleries can be found in it. Even so, important corners and a full history of the Oxford prison remains preserved and built as what it is.

Now, the place has been converted into a tourist spot. Tourists who come to enjoy tour by riding to the top of a tower which stood firm since the 18th century. Visitors are able to climb the tower Saxon St George to see the sights of the historic city of Oxford with an angle of 360 degrees.
