Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest inhabited castle in the world. It has been the family home of British kings and queens for almost 1,000 years and is today one of the official residences of Her Majesty The Queen. Occupying over 10.5 hectares, the Castle offers a varied day out for visitors, including a visit to the magnificent State Apartments and St George's Chapel.
The Windsor Castle includes the State Apartments that are used today by the Royal Family, and other must-see moments within these spectacular rooms, like the Waterloo Chamber, the Crimson Drawing Room and Semi-State Rooms.
The entire Windsor Castle can be divided into upper area, middle area and lower area. The upper area mainly includes palace furnishings such as Waterloo Chanmber, galleries, Queen Mary's Dolls' house, etc.
The central area is dominated by a round tower surrounded by a rose garden. It was originally built of wood and later rebuilt with stone. The Round Tower was once a prison for political opponents of the royal family, but now it is mainly used to preserve royal documents and photography collections.
St. George's Chapel in the Lower District is a fine example of English Gothic architecture. It is famous for its magnificent stone fan-vaulted roof and detailed and gorgeous stained glass. It has also hosted many royal weddings.

I was lucky to see the guard handover ceremony. The castle is really beautiful and it is worth punching in. The family of three took a photo in front of the castle for the first time. The food that my son was thinking of was also eaten. Everything was perfect.
The castle is shocking, especially its interior decoration, the royal style of England is magnificent and beautiful, and you can not take pictures. There is a changing ceremony around 10:45 in the morning, which is worth seeing. The order booked by Trip.com must be printed to redeem the Windsor Castle ticket. If you don't print, you can go to the yellow house print shop in the nearby commercial street to print, 1.5 for one pound.
Worth going, Windsor Castle is famous in large part because of the legendary love story of Edward VIII. In the early twentieth century, when Edward VIII took office, he met Mrs. Simpson, an American woman-husband, and was attracted by her beauty and elegance, the love-loving king chose to abandon the British Empire and marry his beloved woman in secret. Became the most detested couple in the British royal family. Edward VIII lost all royal power and gained a false name as the Duke of Windsor. After months of staying at Windsor Castle, the Duke and his lover both settled in France until their old age. In fact, when I mention Windsor Castle, I think of this ancient recital or highly controversial love story, but also think of Shakespeare's Windsor's Girls, the former shh, the latter shh, whether it is the royal family or the people, in the face of love, there is no way!
It is worth seeing, there is a background, it is quite interesting to see their guard handover ceremony, that is, language communication is a problem 😬 I admire their guards on duty, in the summer, with such long hair hats, so many people as models, hard work 🙏
