Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>The Queen’s coffin has arrived at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh following a six-hour journey from Balmoral Castle.<\/b><\/p>\n

The coffin passed through Aberdeen and Dundee before it was greeted by thousands of people on the city’s Royal Mile.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Travelling in the second car of the cortege was the Queen’s daughter, the Princess Royal, and her husband Vice-Admiral Sir Tim Laurence.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Princess Anne will stay with the coffin as it makes its way to London in the coming days.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Crowds had begun forming early in the day with mourners wishing to pay their respects to the Queen.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Thousands of people lined streets and roads across Scotland to pay their respects as the late monarch’s coffin began its journey south.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

There were a total of 45 vehicles in the funeral cortege, including police outriders and support vehicles.<\/p>\n


\n
\n<\/p>\n

The 175-mile journey from Balmoral to Edinburgh took more than six hours by road.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Thousands of people lined the streets of Edinburgh as the cortege made its way to the Palace of Holyroodhouse – the monarch’s official residence in Scotland.<\/p>\n


\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n

The Queen’s youngest children – Princes Andrew and Edward – were waiting outside the Palace of Holyroodhouse for their mother to arrive. Princess Anne met them and they watched as the coffin was carried inside.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The Queen’s coffin will be moved in procession to St Giles’ Cathedral in Edinburgh on Monday, where it will remain under vigil for 24 hours.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Charles was proclaimed king in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

King Charles III was seen waving to well-wishers outside Buckingham Palace.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Nearby Green Park has gradually filled with floral tributes to the late Queen.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The Queen’s coffin will arrive in London on Tuesday. The Queen will lie in state at Westminster Hall from Wednesday.<\/p>\n
