Queen Elizabeth II Demise: Diana divorce and a lot more; Biggest Scandals | ABP News
Thousands lined the route to catch a glimpse as Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin, seen in public for the first time, made its journey on Sunday from Balmoral Castle in Aberdeenshire to arrive at the late monarch's official Scottish residence of Holyroodhouse Palace in the capital city of Edinburgh. It is the end of the first stage of what her eldest son, King Charles III, has described as his mother's "last great journey" ahead of her funeral in London on September 19.
At the end of a six-hour journey, the coffin – draped with the Royal Standard of Scotland and featuring a wreath of flowers on top – is to rest in the Throne Room of Holyroodhouse until Monday afternoon for the royal household to pay their respects to Britain’s Queen, who died peacefully aged 96 at Balmoral on Thursday evening.
