There are many trips to Windsor, half an hour, so just buy tickets on the spot. London Pass is a free train ride to Windsor. Like Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle is open only in the absence of the Queen. London Pass can avoid queuing, but it was unexpected that because everyone bought London Pass, the people holding London Pass lined up in a long queue, while few people bought tickets on the spot, instead of queuing, they could get in immediately. Why did everyone write before that "Longdon Pass can take the fast lane, can avoid queuing", no one mentioned that in fact, it is still queuing, so we should learn from my lessons and predict the queuing time in advance. After an hour's queue, he finally entered the castle. Now the castle can be visited outside, including The State Apartments, Queen Mary s Doll s House (Queen Mary's Doll House), St George & s Chapel (St. George's Chapel). But you can't take pictures inside the castle, so you can only take pictures outside. Vienna's Meiquan Palace can not be photographed, so here, I would like to praise the French Palace of Versailles once again, or the French atmosphere, photos taken casually. The dining halls of kings and queens, studios, ballrooms, auditoriums and living rooms are famous for collecting royal paintings and treasures; Waterloo Hall was built to celebrate the victory of the Battle of Waterloo, with portraits of British generals who had won the battle neutrally in Waterloo on the walls, and the portraits of the great Duke of Wellington, of course, are in the most striking legitimacy; the walls and roofs of the Grand Knights Hall are covered with houses. There are Knight badges, even knights who are considered traitors, except that their badges become pure white. The silver armor Henry VIII wore was also displayed in the innermost cabin of the Grand Knight's Hall. The National Banquet Hall is a collection of Leonardo Da Vinci, Rafael, Michelangelo and other famous masterpieces and exquisite porcelain. The Garde Hall is used to honour the Garde Knight. One of the most interesting is undoubtedly Queen Mary's Doll House (queen Mary s Dolls house), which is also the daughter's favorite. The doll house, built in 1924, was once Queen Mary's personal toy and a birthday gift. It is actually a miniature model of a British Royal palace, replicating all the furnishings in the palace in proportion to the original, plus a garden. Inside are 750 pieces of art, spanning the Victorian period to the pre-Raphaelian style. The most amazing thing is that the power and drainage system in the doll house should be complete, with hot and cold water flowing through the pipeline into the kitchen sink. Soap by the kitchen sink, silver tableware and sauce on the dining table are reduced proportionally, and even brands are on it. After coming out from the National City Hall and the Doll's House, I will pass through the entrance of the moat garden and enter the city where I need to buy additional tickets. I forget how much it is. It seems like 3,4 pounds or so. I think it's still worth going in. It's beautiful.

    As soon as I laid eyes on Windsor Castle, I knew I was in for a royal treat! 👑 This magnificent fortress has been the home of British monarchs for nearly a millennium, and let me tell you, it oozes history from every nook and cranny. From the moment I stepped through the iconic Henry VIII Gate, I was transported to a world of regal splendor. The State Apartments were a true feast for the eyes, with their ornate ceilings, priceless artworks, and lavish furnishings. I half-expected Queen Elizabeth herself to emerge from one of the rooms! 🤴👸But the real showstopper was St. George's Chapel. This breathtaking Gothic masterpiece left me utterly awestruck with its soaring arches, intricate stone carvings, and the final resting places of numerous kings and queens. Talk about a royal sendoff! 💀👻And let's not forget the legendary Changing of the Guard ceremony. Watching those stoic guards marching in perfect synchronization while sporting those iconic bearskin hats was a sight to behold. 🐻 I felt like a kid again, gawking in wonder at the sheer pageantry of it all.Windsor Castle is an absolute must-visit for anyone who wants to experience the grandeur of British royalty firsthand. Just be sure to pack your crown and scepter! 👑⚜️

    Who doesn’t love the Windsor Castle— The Royal Residence? Stunning castle with mixed Gothic, Victorian and Georgian Architectural elements that makes the castle unique and beautiful! I’ve been here thrice: once when I was younger with family and friends, then in 2019 when my relatives from abroad came to visit us and in during the pandemic, I cycled from London to Windsor Castle! Highly recommend! also Legoland is located nearby and Eaton College as well! There’s a lot to see and do here!
