"For a dose of both architectural drama and literary history, this sprawling college—the alma mater of poet William Wordsworth, abolitionist William Wilberforce and no fewer than three saints—spans both banks of the River Cam. Its crowning glory is the Bridge of Sighs, a stunning covered bridge of intricate stone tracery that has encouraged countless Instagram posts and even some notable student pranks. The bridge's best views are reserved for punting tourists and college visitors, while the college’s neo-Gothic grandeur makes it the second largest and perhaps most photogenic of Cambridge colleges." - Aashna Gajra
