Britons will be able to pay their respects at Elizabeth II's coffin

The British will finally be able to approach their popular queen: after arriving in Edinburgh, Elizabeth II's coffin will be displayed to the public on Monday after a procession led by Charles III, launching a week of farewell until her state funeral. Many of them will no doubt be rushing to Saint-Gilles Cathedral to try to pay homage as closely as possible to their sovereign who died on Thursday, given the number of people who gathered the day before along the route of the funeral procession to applaud, cry or throw a flower in its path. In the Scottish capital, tens of thousands of people welcomed the hearse Sunday afternoon with cries of “Be blessed”, a sign of the fervour of the British people for the woman who ruled for more than 70 years before dying at the age of 96, two days after inaugurating her 15th head of government.
