3. Hampton Court Palace East Molesey
Hampton Court Palace is a royal palace in the borough of Richmond upon Thames, 11.7 miles south west and upstream of central London on the River Thames. Building of the palace began in 1515 for Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, a favourite of King Henry VIII. In 1529, as Wolsey fell from favour, the cardinal gave the palace to the King to check his disgrace; Henry VIII later enlarged it. Along with St James's Palace, it is one of only two surviving palaces out of the many owned by King Henry VIII. In the following century, King William III's massive rebuilding and expansion work, which was intended to rival Versailles, destroyed much of the Tudor palace. Work ceased in 1694, leaving the palace in two distinct contrasting architectural styles, domestic Tudor and Baroque. While the palace's styles are...

Thorpe Park is a theme park located between the towns of Chertsey and Staines-upon-Thames in Surrey. It is operated and owned by Merlin Entertainments.

Thorpe Park Resort was built in the 1970s on the gravel pit which was partially flooded, creating a water-based theme for the park. This essentially allows guests to view the park as an island, which is where the park's current island like no other slogan originates from. It was officially opened to the public by Lord Louis Mountbatten in 1979. It has since grown into one of the major theme parks in the UK and now also features a hotel.

Diamond Jubilee Beacon - Lions - Midhurst 2012 - Hópsöngur - Krýningarafmæli Englandsdrottningar 4

Count down - and the amazing lighting of the Diamond Jubilee Beacon. Það var haldið upp á 60 ára veldistíma Englandsdrottningar 4.6.2012 með því að halda keðjubrennur eða Beacon sem þýðir á Ensku brenna sem sést í ákveðna vegalengd og þar tekur við næsta brenna og svo koll af kolli - alltaf hægt að sjá á milli þeirra eða bjarmann frá þeim - þetta var gert drottningunni til heiðurs og voru yfir 4000 brennur kveiktar kerfisbundið víðsvegar um heiminn. Hérna er bálkösturinn sem ég sá og var hann að mestu leiti hlaðinn úr trjágreinum og var holur að innan enda fuðraði hann hratt upp eftir að kveikt var í honum.

A awesome network of over 4000 Beacons will be lit by communities and others throughout the United Kingdom, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, along with the Commonwealth and UK Overseas Territories on Monday 4th June 2012 to celebrate Her Majesty The Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

The Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II is a multinational celebration throughout 2012 marking the 60th anniversary of the accession of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom to the thrones of seven countries upon the death of her father, King George VI, on 6 February 1952. She is today queen regnant of 16 sovereign states, 12 of which were British colonies or Dominions at the start of her reign.

Queen Victoria in 1897 is the only other monarch in the histories of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and a few other Commonwealth realms to have celebrated a Diamond Jubilee.

Lighting up the Diamond Jubilee: Spectacular beacons are lit in Britain and the rest of the world to honour the Queen's 60 years on the throne.

At 10pm around the first of 4,000 or so beacons in Britain were lit in unison, creating a network criss-crossing the country from historic landmarks, to local meeting places, hilltop vantage points and tourist attractions.

Þessi söngur er einn vinsælasti söngur eða sameiningartákn í Bretlandi.

The song Rule Britannia: Soprano: Renée Fleming -

Possibly the most British song ever written: Rule Britannia!. Composed by Thomas Arne in 1740 this tune was originally part of a masque, a baroque courtly festivity somewhere between an opera and a costume-ball, about Alfred the Great, but soon developed an independent life of its own.

Krýningarafmæli - 60 ára veldisafmæli Elísabetar Englandsdrottningar.

„Það hefur snert mig djúpt að sjá svo margar þúsundir fjölskyldna, nágranna og vina fagna saman í svo ánægjulegu andrúmslofti, sagði Elísabet Bretadrottning í stuttu ávarpi til bresku þjóðarinnar í gær, á lokadegi fjögurra daga hátíðarhalda í tilefni af sextíu ára krýningar-afmæli hennar.

The Queen's Diamond Jubilee concert came to a close with the lighting of the Jubilee beacon.

Midhurst is situated in the Wealden Greensand, which lies between the South Downs and the Low Weald. The town is located in the Rother Valley: the River Rother flows east-south-east to join the River Arun near Pulborough, from which point the river flows southwards to reach the sea at Littlehampton. The name Midhurst is likely to relate to the area and to predate any nucleated settlement. The Old English form means the place in the middle of the hyrst (i.e. wooded hill) or the place among hyrsts. Evidently pre-Conquest in origin, the name is first recorded in 1185.
