早上到剑桥，这里的每所学院入内参观都需要费用，trinity college入内是需要1镑。进去之后，售票员会给你一份简易的map，跟着map路线参观。最后会走到康河旁，站在桥伤，可以欣赏到撑篙的景色哦!

This wonderful college is the prototype for all universities that have followed it. The main courtyard is famous for its annual race against the clock chiming at Noon (as featured in "Chariots of Fire"). The Christopher Wren-designed library and the chapel are beautiful - and if you are lucky you might hear the college's choir practicing, as we did. We were fortunate enough to actually stay at the college for a night, thanks to a Fellow - truly a magical experience.

Trinity College dates back to the 13th century and is one of the oldest in existence. Its magnificent gatehouse is a favourite spot for tourists to take photographs. Very picturesque

For £2 all you get to see is inside the chapel and you can only see a small part of it. You them wander round to the Wren library which is okay. cant see much as it is cordoned off. and only 15 visitors in at one time

It was beyond the close time when I arrived the trinity college, I took pics at the gate, it was really really holy with a sculpture of Henry the eight~

To see the most, try to do an official tour. It's worth paying to see this. The Chapel is incredible to experience, remembering the likes of Bacon, Newton, Whewell were within those walls.

One of the best colleges in Cambridge to get the real flavour of English heritage - the grounds; the libraries; the chapel and the whole atmosphere of Trinity is an experience to be savoured.

The college was beautiful from the exterior, what I could see of it. It was closed to the public during my visit because the students were taking exams. Bummer. I was sight seeing solo while my husband had a job interview, so I wasn't able to come back another day. A large surly "bouncer" was guarding the entrance, not even allowing a peak inside. It was late in the afternoon on a cold fall day with not another soul in sight...I'm not sure what harm he thought I was going to cause. I headed back toward King's College and ended up following an adjacent street. I came across a small covered bike parking area that afforded a bit of a view of what was presumably the main courtyard. Just past that, I saw a young student use her key card to enter through one of the massive wooden doors. She looked furtively at me before entering, as if she thought I was going to sneak in. Apart from enjoying the impressive exterior, the rest of my experience at Trinity was that visitors are not welcome.

It's difficult to come away from a tour of the huge grounds and buildings of Trinity without muttering 'they don't know how lucky they are' to all and any students passing by. It's magnificent from the astonishing library (Newton's own personal books there apparently), through to the gorgeous carefully manicured lawns and River Cam stretch, views of King's College Chapel, and the quite lovely tale of the founding patron, King Henry VIII and his statue overlooking the entrance: look carefully at what used to be the sceptre in his right hand.

amazed at the £1 entrance compared to other buildings, lovely courtyard and fountain, though everywhere was closed to the public which I was very upset and disappointed in

The house of Isaac Newton. Nothing further needs to be said! You have to see it, at least the entrance.

Wonderful, wonderful visit to this historic building and viewing incredible history here. Do not miss this building if you are in Cambridge. It is just wonderful.

Nice chapel, I liked the looked after grounds. This really is not to be missed and at £1 it's very cheap.

One of the must sees for any Cambridge visitor! One of my favourite places to take friends and family for a nosey round.

Good value, interesting look inside the college. The library is well worth a visit, particularly the sculptures and the manuscripts they have on display. Keep in mind that it is a reading room, and you have to be silent and considerate of the people who may be working or studying in there.
