The residence of British monarchs (32 photos)
Windsor Castle - the residence of British monarchs for the past 900 years in Windsor, Berkshire. His visit is a mandatory program for every self-respecting guest England. Castle most accurately and vividly reflects the history and customs of this country.
I would like to come back on a sunny October day on the shores of Albion. But what he is vague? It is here such bright saturated by Kolor Windsor.
Arriving at Windsor Station - and here the shot hit signboard prohibiting smoking. And in the picture below the royal steam locomotive - already exhibit ... And once it arrived here crowned heads.
Already we see it - Windsor Castle, it was the name of the castle was the name of the now ruling royal dynasty.
This phone booth, painted in the colors of the British flag, just "telephoned" grandmother Elizabeth II, on the other hand her grandson, Harry.))))
Opposite the monument of another queen - Victoria.
The castle was founded by William the Conqueror, in 1066. Of course, since then much water has flowed, and each monarch to contribute to the construction of the castle.
The highest point of the castle - the "Round Tower", which is located on a large hill and over it ...
flies the Royal Standard - Queen Elizabeth II is in the lock.
Just to previous picture I want to "fix" this one shot, when the guard says something like "only the Queen of Great Britain ...
This "holy of holies" - the personal residence of the Queen, her space. These tourists are not allowed.
Official reception rooms and many other facilities are available for viewing, but can not be photographed. With the protection of Her Majesty did not joke and put the camera away.
This, of course, such a postcard Queen's Guard ...
It is famous for its red coat and, of course, fur hats - is such a cap weighs 3 kilos, its height is 45, 7 cm, it is worn not only in winter but in summer. On a hat out of a skin of the Canadian grizzly bear. This issue has become alarming animal protection as a result of the Ministry of Defence tried to find another material for caps. However, fake fur is practical and less perishable.
Against the introduction of faux fur caps in favor and Canada. The population of grizzly bears in the country hundreds of thousands. There are too many, and the Canadian government to issue licenses on their shooting. They hunt them mainly Canadian Indians, who then excrete bearskins. In other words, the transition of the Royal Guard on synthetics may deprive Canadian Indians of good earnings.
This chapel of St. George (left), built in the era of the Middle Ages. It failed to get there: there went worship, and tourists were not allowed.
Last October rose.
Golden Autumn Windsor.
So we leave the residence of the British Crown.
Finally the guy in the kilt bagpipes played us farewell melody.
Here in this phone booth with the British flag, and I end up stories about the short stay in this country.
