Windsor Castle - A must see on your bucket list when visiting UK,
Windsor Castle is almost as famous as its inhabitants, Queen Elizabeth II. This stunning estate is the world’s longest-occupied palace in the world, housing 39 British monarchs over nearly 1,000 years, a social centre for political figures and nobility.
by the time Queen Victoria took up residence at Windsor, major renovations of the castle’s exterior with the grand vision of George IV and additions to the interiors, like a dedicated Music Room, made the palace even more renowned and exquisite.
It was during the reign of Queen Victoria that the castle’s now-iconic St. George’s Chapel became the choice for royal family burials over Westminster Abbey—and the castle itself became a central facet of the British monarchy, as the Queen spent most of the year at Windsor.
The Queen spends most of her private weekends at Windsor.
