Mourners lined the streets of London to watch the Queen’s casket travel from Westminster Hall to Westminster Abbey.
Thousands stood on the sides of the road after waiting for hours for the Queen’s funeral.
Queen Elizabeth was the longest reigning monarch in British history, serving over 70 years. She was 96 at the time of her death.
Some wore elaborate outfits to honor Queen Elizabeth.
A photographer snapped a shot of two mourners wearing bedazzled outfits that seem to be made specifically to honor the Queen.
Many mourners stood near Westminster Abbey.
People stood for hours just to try to get a glimpse of the Queen’s casket ahead of her funeral.
Some mourners carried signs made for her Majesty.
Another mourner stood on the edge of the procession holding a photo of the Queen grinning.
She wrote “RIP my Queen” above the picture.
Others created art to express their grief.
One mourner left a painting of Paddington Bear with the caption “R.I.P. your Majesty” at Westminster Abbey on the day of the Queen’s funeral.
The Queen filmed a skit with the beloved bear to mark her Platinum Jubilee before her death.
World leaders gathered at the funeral.
In this photo, President Joe Biden’s motorcade makes its way to the funeral. He is just one of many world leaders to gather in the Queen’s honor.
Members of the royal family processed behind the Queen’s casket as it made its way into Westminster Abbey.
Prince William and Prince Harry looked solemn as they walked behind their grandmother.
Princess Anne and King Charles III saluted their mother as she was carried into the abbey.
The Queen’s two eldest children both spent over 70 years at their mother’s side.
Prince Harry and Prince Andrew stood at attention as the rest of the royal family saluted the Queen.
Prince Harry and Prince Andrew are not working royals, so they were not permitted to wear their military attire to the funeral.
Attendees of the Queen’s funeral rose to their feet as her casket was carried into Westminster Abbey.
2,000 people attended the funeral.
Crowds gathered in Her Majesty’s honor throughout the UK.
For instance, thousands watched the funeral outside of Windsor Castle on big screens.
