Windsor is ideal for a day trip from London and is a particular highlight for fans of the British royal family. After all, Windsor Castle, a royal residence that has been home to 40 monarchs, is located here.
I strolled along the famous Long Walk, an extensive avenue that can often be seen in photos - with a marvellous view of Windsor Castle. The Queen was driven along this route on her last journey. Past her favourite horse, her corgies, her family and many, many mourners.
Created by King Charles II in 1682-85, this tree-lined avenue stretches almost 2.5 miles down to the ancient fortress of Windsor Castle, the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world.
