| Windsor Castle dominated the town it surrounds, making the town a pretty busy place at the best of times. |
| The fortress, which has existed for 900 years, is a working palace and often visited by the Queen. In 1993 it was badly damaged by a fire |
| Visitors can see the sumptious interior, including the state apartments, Queen Mary's doll's house and St George's Chapel, where there are the tombs of Henry VII, Charles I and the final resting place of the late Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, who died in 2002, aged 101. |
| To celebrate the Queen's Golden Jubilee in 2002 a new garden has been created at the castle. |
| The royal town of Windsor complements the castle, with cobbled streets, speciality shops and houses with their own history, such as Nell Gwynne's house and the Guildhall, built by Sir Christopher Wren. |
| Nearby - and a day out on its' own - is Legoland Windsor. This is a great day out for the kids with towns created from Lego bricks, thrill rides and adventure parks. |
