As we know, Great Britain will organize a national funeral and pay a last tribute to the departure of Queen Elizabeth II.

According to the plan, after her coffin is returned to London, the Queen will then rest in Westminster Hall for around four days before her funeral. This allows all members of the public to see it.

The Queen’s coffin will be placed on a raised platform, called a catafalque, under the medieval wooden roof of an 11th-century hall. Every corner of the platform will be guarded by soldiers from the units serving the Royal Household.

He will be led to Westminster Hall from Buckingham Palace in a slow procession, accompanied by a parade of military and royals.

People will also be able to watch the procession pass through the streets and a big screen broadcast is likely to take place in London’s Royal Parks.

The coffin will be covered with Royal Standard and in Westminster Hall will be covered with an Imperial State Crown, orb and scepter.

Once the casket is placed in the room, a brief service will take place. After that, people are allowed to enter.

The Queen’s state funeral is due to take place at Westminster Abbey in less than two weeks. The exact date will be confirmed by Buckingham Palace.
