Queen elizabeth celebrates, Queen Elizabeth the second is celebrating sixty years since her coronation.
The British monarch is spending the anniversary in private.
A commemorative service will be held on Tuesday in Westminster Abbey, where the young Elizabeth was crowned.
Earlier this week, the queen visited the London barracks of Lee Rigby – a soldier killed in a brutal attack in the capital last month that shocked the nation.
The queen was crowned on the second of June nineteen fifty three, at the age of twenty seven.
The coronation took place more than a year after Elizabeth acceded to the throne, to allow a period of mourning for her father King George the sixth.
Six decades on, a festival will be held in the grounds of Buckingham Palace in July to celebrate Queen Elizabeth’s reign.
