Crowds line the streets as the Queen makes a sombre final journey. Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin left Balmoral Castle for a long, slow journey back to London, via the Scottish capital. The coffin of Queen Elizabeth II, draped with the Royal Standard of Scotland, completes its journey from Balmoral to the Palace of Holyroodhouse on September 11, 2022 in Edinburgh, Scotland. It will lie in rest for a day, in Edinburgh. Over the course of the week, the Queen’s body will travel from Balmoral, Scotland, where she died on Thursday, to Buckingham Palace in London and on to Westminster Abbey.
