Over 100,000 tourists flocked to the town of Windsor to experience the joy of Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding, and after the church ceremony, the newlyweds took a approximately 25-minute carriage ride (in a carriage from 1883). Along the route, people from around the world and across the UK cheered loudly, lining the streets to welcome them, creating an extremely warm atmosphere.
St. George's Chapel was built in 1474, and this iconic 15th-century Gothic architecture is remarkably elegant. It serves as the royal chapel of Windsor Castle and is part of the Order of the Garter chapel. Many royal weddings have been held here. A visit to Windsor Castle inevitably includes seeing this chapel to appreciate its refined and lofty architecture both inside and out.

Moreover, several members of the British royal family throughout history are also buried here, such as Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother.
