the Windsor Castle reopened to the public on Thursday September 29, three weeks after the royal funeral of Elizabeth II. Tourists were present in large numbers to visit the monument, where the queen was buried.

The queue stretches for hundreds of meters. Ahead of the opening of Windsor Castle (UK), visitors are flocking on the morning of Friday September 30, three weeks after it closed due to the mourning of Elizabeth II. Many foreign tourists are present. “We didn’t expect to be able to access Windsor, so we are delighted to visit both the castle and to be able to greet the Queen, with her burial”says a Frenchman.

Visitors can, since Thursday, September 29, see with their eyes the tomb of the sovereign, buried in the Saint-Georges chapel alongside her husband, Prince Philip, and his parents. Some Britons expected a lot from this moment. “It does something when you actually see the tomb, with writing Elizabeth II”, says a woman. The queen was a symbol all over the world. Even some American tourists are touched to share this moment with the British.
