ロンドン! 5日目その2 ウィンザー城・イギリスドライブ2 [ロンドン]

12:00頃、ストーンヘンジを後にして、ロンドン近郊の「ウィンザー城」へ。

13:10、ウィンザー城の町に到着!、町の中に入る道がわからず、ウィンザー城を眺めながら、周囲をしばらくぐるぐるしてしまいました。

13:25、ようやく、ウィンザー城の傍の駐車場に到着!

エリザベス女王が週末を過ごす「ウィンザー城」。11世紀にウィリアム征服王がこの地に要塞を築いて以来続いている、イギリス王室の居城。実際に居住されている城としては、最大のものらしい。
重厚なたたずまいの城は、まさに「要塞」といった様相です。

歴代の王侯たちが使用した家具調度品や精巧なドールハウスのあるクィーン・メアリ人形館、レンブラント、ルーベンスなどの作品を見ることができます。「パリに行ったら、ルーブル宮」と同じようにロンドンに行ったら一度は訪れたいところです。

周辺は、のどかな田舎町といった感じです。

14:51、ウィンザー城のまわりの土産モノ屋。さて、ロンドンに帰ります!

16:30、レンタカーを無事、返却し、ロンドンの街に繰り出しました。さて、最後の夜になります。
イギリスのドライブ、中々、楽しかったです。次回の機会があれば、コッツウォルズやはるかスコットランドをドライブなんていいなと思いました。列車とレンタカーの組み合わせの旅もいいかなとも思います。
さて、事前の情報では、「イギリスは、紳士の国なので、運転マナーがいい」という情報と「紳士の国と言われているが、運転マナーは悪い」と両方の情報がありました。実際は、ロンドン市内で、ちょっと加速に失敗した時に、盛大にクラクションを鳴らされたくらいで、、大きなトラブルもなく快適なドライブでした。運転マナーに関しては、東京とそんなに変わらないという感じです。
ドライブに関して、情報をひとつ。ロンドンの中心部に入るには、別途、税金がかかるようです。ロンドン市内を運転する方は、ご注意ください。税金は、レンタカーを借りる時に払うようです。今回のルートでは、必要ありませんでした。ボンドストリート、ピカデリーサーカス、シティだとかに入る場合は必要です。

異国のお城もなかなかに良いですね。

ノリパさん、コメントありがとうございます。
異国のお城は、日本のお城に比べると、雄々しいというか、男性的だなと感じます。鎧や兜のデザインもそんな感じがします。それぞれの良さがありますね。

Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site? I'm getting sick and tired of Wordpress because I've had issues with hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform. ニコン 一眼レフ http://osdi.org/images/camera07.html

Hi would you mind sharing which blog platform you're using? I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely unique. P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask! 価格 デジカメ http://uit.edu/mwaseem/kamera02.html

Aw, this was a really fantastic post. In theory I’d prefer to write like this also – taking time and actual work to generate an excellent report… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and in no way appear to get a thing completed.

Can I simply say what a relief to discover an individual who really knows what they are discussing over the internet. You certainly realize how to bring a problem to light and make it important. More and more people really need to read this and understand this side of your story. I was surprised you’re not more popular given that you surely have the gift.
