- The coffin carrying Queen Elizabeth II has moved from where she died in Balmoral, Scotland.
- Accompanied by Princess Anne, the coffin will travel to Edinburgh and stay there until Tuesday.
Queen Elizabeth II left Balmoral, Scotland for the last time on Sunday.
The coffin carrying the body of the monarch, who died aged 96 at her residence in Balmoral on Thursday, is now en route to the city of Edinburgh via a hearse. Draped in the royal standard with a wreath of white flowers placed on top, the coffin has begun a three-day journey, which will culminate in London on Tuesday.
Accompanying the coffin is the Queen's only daughter, Princess Anne, who will remain by her late mother's side until she reaches her final resting place in London on Tuesday.
The journey between Balmoral and Edinburgh is expected to take six hours. The Queen's hearse is passing through smaller towns and cities before reaching the Palace of Holyroodhouse, which is the official residence of the monarch in Scotland, the BBC reports.
As the coffin travels through winding countryside roads and small towns like Ballater, members of the public have lined the streets to pay tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, whose reign lasted 70 years.
Once the coffin reaches the Palace of Holyroodhouse, it will lie in the Throne room until Monday. Afterward, it will move to St Giles' Cathedral in Edinburgh before it is flown to London on Tuesday.
A funeral for the monarch will then take place at Westminster Abbey on September 19, after which the Queen will reach her final resting place in Windsor Castle next to her late husband, Prince Philip.
Scotland held a special place for the late Queen, who spent every summer at her 50,000-acre estate in the Highlands.
Her granddaughter, Princess Eugenie, once said she was "most happy there," in the documentary "Our Queen At Ninety," the Daily Mail reported.
