From Buckingham Palace, King Charles and his wife Queen Camilla will first drive the two kilometers to the church of Westminster Abbey in the so-called ‘Diamond Jubilee State Car’. It was first used for Queen Elizabeth in 2014. The carriage is fitted with shock absorbers and air conditioning, AP reports.
But the trip from the church to Buckingham Palace after the coronation will be very different. The couple will be transported in a 260-year-old four-ton golden carriage, pulled by eight horses and capable of moving only at walking speed.
In addition to transportation, the itinerary for the coronation has also been announced, which, unlike the Queen’s previous coronation, will be the same there and back.
