Grauman’s Chinese Theatre is an iconic movie theatre located at 6928 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood. The Chinese Theatre was commissioned following the success of the nearby Grauman’s Egyptian Theatre which opened in 1922. Built over 18 months beginning in January 1926 by a partnership headed by Sid Grauman, the theatre opened May 18, 1927 with the premiere of Cecil B. DeMille’s The King of Kings.[1] It has since been home to many premieres, birthday parties, corporate junkets and two Academy Awards ceremonies. Among the theatre’s most famous traits are the autographed cement blocks that reside in the forecourt, which bear the signatures and markings of many of Hollywood’s most revered stars and starlets. From 1973 through 2001, the theatre was known as Mann’s Chinese Theatre, owing to its acquisition by Mann Theatres in 1973. In the wake of Mann’s bankruptcy, the Chinese, along with the other Mann properties, was sold in 2000 to a partnership comprising Warner Bros. and Paramount Pictures, who also acquired the Mann brand name.[2] In 2002 the original name was restored to the cinema palace, although the other theatres in the attached Hollywood and Highland mall retain and continue to operate under the name Mann’s Chinese 6 Theater.  Visit it while sightseeing Los Angeles.

The University of Oxford (”Oxford University”), located in the city of Oxford, England, is the oldest university in the English-speaking world. It is also regarded as one of the world’s leading academic institutions. The university traces its roots back to at least the end of the 11th century, although the exact date of foundation remains unclear.
