温莎城堡Windsor Castle

Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world and the Official Residence of Her Majesty The Queen. Its rich history spans almost 1000 years. A Royal home and fortress for over 900 years, the Castle remains a working palace today. The Queen uses the Castle both as a private home, where she usually spends the weekend, and as a Royal residence at which she undertakes certain formal duties. Every year The Queen takes up official residence in Windsor Castle for a month over Easter (March～April), known as Easter Court. During that time The Queen hosts occasional ‘dine and sleeps' events for guests, including politicians and public figures. The Queen is also in residence for a week in June, when she attends the service of the Order of the Garter and the Royal Ascot race meeting.

温莎城堡是世界上最古老、规模最大的居住城堡，同时也是英国女王陛下的府邸。它差不多已经有一千多年的历史，作为皇家城堡也已经有900多年了，直到今天它仍然是皇家居住的地方。这里既是女王的私人住宅——她通常会来这里度过周末的时光，同时也是她举行某些正式活动的地方。女王还会在复活节期间（3～4月）在温莎城堡住上一个月，在此期间她还会邀请一些重要的客人到这里做客，这其中包括一些政要和公众人物。另外，6月份女王也会在这里住上一个星期，参加颁发嘉德勋章的典礼和皇家阿斯科特赛马会的活动。
