Traveler Photos of Egham

This view is why Windsor Castle is where it is.  They had three days notice that anyone was approaching. Impressive. The Wallingford Wall inside the Cathedral. We approach Windsor Castle. This is the castle's main entrance, but is actually where visitors (tourists) exit.  Facing this entrance, turn right and walk way up the road and you find the visitor entrance.
