LONDON – The coffin of the Late Queen Elizabeth was taken along the Royal Mile in the Scottish capital Edinburgh in a silent and solemn procession watched by thousands of people lining the street to pay their respects to Britain’s longest-serving monarch.

King Charles and his siblings – Anne, Andrew and Edward – walked behind the hearse up the historic street. The royal company of archers provided the guard of honor.

The coffin will lie in St. Giles’ Cathedral for an overnight vigil before being flown to London on Tuesday.

King Charles also visited the Scottish parliament mounting a vigil along with other royals.

On Wednesday, the queen’s coffin will begin a period of lying in state at Westminster Hall. It is expected to remain there until early on the day of her state funeral.

Mourners along today’s route shared tearful reactions.
