"Riverside Architecture"

A warren of seven academic edifices line the banks of the Cam River in Cambridge's historic heart, offering a glimpse into the area's immense heritage, history and architectural importance. The Backs are titled so because one can view the backs or rear of the seven colleges from a vantage on the river. These seven colleges, deemed as some of the most prestigious in the academic universe, include King's College, Clare College and St. John's College, among others. Built on land reclaimed from the river's floodplains, they rise majestically over the area's lush surrounds, standing as historic sentinels of academia and tradition. Visitors can view these architectural greats as they glide in a boat along the river, sinking in the serene vistas that surround them.
