A quick train ride away from London, you'll find yourself lost in a fairytale at the oldest and largest occupied castle — the queen even spends most of her weekends here.

This image was taken in a walkway on the property of Windsor Castle, which is 21 miles outside of London. To get here, I recommend taking the train from the city.
This view is the archway near The Moat in the Upper Ward of the castle grounds. If you start the walking tour from the start of the entrance, this spot is towards the end of your walking tour. You can also reference the GPS coordinates and you'll be able to reach the exact spot where I stood for this photo.
By public transportation:
- Windsor and Eton Central (via GWR)
- Head east
- Walk for 272 ft and then take the stairs
- Head southeast toward Thames St/B3022
- Turn right onto High St/Thames St/B3022
- Turn left onto Castle Hill
