Queen Elizabeth II has been laid to rest at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor.
The royal family, world leaders and members of the public turned out in massive crowds to guide the queen on her final journey from Westminster Hall to the chapel on Monday, bidding farewell to the monarch who reigned over the United Kingdom for 70 years.
Elizabeth will be buried alongside her late husband Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, who died last year.
Here are some of the most memorable moments from the sombre day.
Hundreds of thousands of mourners patiently waited in a massive line, some overnight, to attend the lying in state. The queen’s coffin was laid at Westminster Hall for members of the public to share their grief and pay their respects.
The line peaked at 10 miles long, according to the BBC, which is more than 16 kilometres. The wait time reached a maximum of 24 hours.

Other commonwealth world leaders, including New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, also flew to London to pay their respects.
As the world gathered to say goodbye to the late monarch, the royal family arrived to say goodbye to a mother, a grandmother, and a beloved relative.
With slightly red, teary eyes, King Charles III saluted from his vehicle as he left Westminster Abbey following the funeral service for his mother.
