The Queen Is Offering A Rare Look Into Her Secret Windsor Castle Garden

0

Although parts of Windsor Castle — the grand state rooms among them — are open to the public, much of the grand fortress remains sealed off, including the Queen’s private residences and her gardens. However, today, the Queen announced she will allow visitors to wander the East Terrace Gardens of Windsor Castle in August while she’s summering at Balmoral. It’s news that will surely delight ardent royal watchers and historians: Since the 1970s, the gardens have been for Windsor family use only. It’s a stunning expanse of greenery: overlooking Windsor’s east facade, it has 3,500 rose bushes that surround its central, lotus-shaped fountain. There are domes of yew, and four bronze figures by French sculptor Hubert Le Sueur. And it has a modern pop culture significance: the Queen was photographed there by Annie Leibovitz in 2016.
