Nearby Cambridge is not only world renowned for its academic achievements but has also become the centre of the "high-tech" industry with the University Research and Development Laboratories and the internationally renowned Cambridge Science Park. Addenbrooke's Hospital/Biomedical Campus, on the south-eastern side of the city, is one of the largest centres of health science and medical research in Europe. The city provides an attractive combination of ancient and modern buildings, colleges, winding lanes, the tree lined River Cam and extensive shopping facilities together with an excellent choice of independent schools.
