I have been visiting these impressive places since childhood. Hampton Court, a Tudor Palace, forever associated with King Henry VIII, who lived here with all six of his wives, with spectacular gardens sweeping down to the River Thames. It was nearly lost when later monarchs tried to refashion it into a grand French-style Palace. Fortunately, they didn't have the money to see it through, leaving us with a Palace of two halves. Visit the Tudor kitchens, Great Hall, Chapel Royal and the State Apartments of the Baroque Palace. Hear anecdotes of royal court life. Windsor Castle, a historic fortress founded by William the Conqueror nearly 1,000 yrs ago. A royal palace that has been home to 40 monarchs. Visit the State Apartments and see some of the finest works of art in the Royal Collection. Marvel at the magnificent St George's Chapel, the burial place of Queen Elizabeth II and 10 other monarchs and the spiritual home of the famed Knights of the Garter.
