Original Text
Windsor Castle is the largest and oldest inhabited castle in the world. It was built in the 11th century and is now the principal administrative residence of the Queen of England, where official and private activities are often carried out. The design of the castle has evolved over time, with royal preferences and financial changes. Many features are mixed with classical and modern elements. Visits are divided into upper, middle and lower districts. The legendary story of King Edward VIII "not loving rivers and mountains and loving beauties" made Windsor Castle more famous. Windsor Castle also has the Royal Guard's change-of-duty ceremony, which takes place every day from April to July in good weather, and every other month every other day, except Sunday, which starts at 11:00 and lasts for about 45 minutes. However, the change-of-duty ceremony is carried out in the square inside the castle. It should be noted that the time of the change-of-duty ceremony in the square is prohibited from leaving the exit. After the tour, you can also stroll around Windsor Town, where the famous Eton Public School, the Royal Jockey Club and other attractions, the castle exit right turn straight about 200 meters there are ECCO stores worth visiting.

    As soon as I laid eyes on Windsor Castle, I knew I was in for a royal treat! 👑 This magnificent fortress has been the home of British monarchs for nearly a millennium, and let me tell you, it oozes history from every nook and cranny. From the moment I stepped through the iconic Henry VIII Gate, I was transported to a world of regal splendor. The State Apartments were a true feast for the eyes, with their ornate ceilings, priceless artworks, and lavish furnishings. I half-expected Queen Elizabeth herself to emerge from one of the rooms! 🤴👸But the real showstopper was St. George's Chapel. This breathtaking Gothic masterpiece left me utterly awestruck with its soaring arches, intricate stone carvings, and the final resting places of numerous kings and queens. Talk about a royal sendoff! 💀👻And let's not forget the legendary Changing of the Guard ceremony. Watching those stoic guards marching in perfect synchronization while sporting those iconic bearskin hats was a sight to behold. 🐻 I felt like a kid again, gawking in wonder at the sheer pageantry of it all.Windsor Castle is an absolute must-visit for anyone who wants to experience the grandeur of British royalty firsthand. Just be sure to pack your crown and scepter! 👑⚜️

    Who doesn’t love the Windsor Castle— The Royal Residence? Stunning castle with mixed Gothic, Victorian and Georgian Architectural elements that makes the castle unique and beautiful! I’ve been here thrice: once when I was younger with family and friends, then in 2019 when my relatives from abroad came to visit us and in during the pandemic, I cycled from London to Windsor Castle! Highly recommend! also Legoland is located nearby and Eaton College as well! There’s a lot to see and do here!
