Oxford, my hometown, is famous for its beautiful architecture and historic university. But even if you've never visited, you might recognize it from popular films like "Saltburn," "Wonka," and the "Harry Potter" series.
It's only about an hour from London, so it's a popular tourist destination — we get around 7 million visitors a year. And many of those vacationers are fans scouting out filming locations.
I've lived in or near Oxford for most of my life. Although the movies show a slice of life, there's much more to discover beyond the iconic filming spots.
