Visit the tombs of great historical figures from Henry VIII to Queen Elizabeth II, now laid to rest with her husband and Mother and Father in St Georges Chapel, church of the Knights of the Garter, a Royal Peculiar, governed by his Majesty and one of the most magnificent examples of Perpendicular Gothic ever created.

Attend the changing of the foot guards, some of Britain's finest military units, exhibiting precision drill in their ceremonial uniform.
Examine the coats of arms of hundreds of knights In St Georges Hall, from the celebrated to the disgraced.
Windsor Castle, site of the births, marriages and burials of kings and queens for a thousand years,
