Windsor, England is probably famous for one thing and that's being on the Heathrow flight path. Oh yeah, there's also a castle there that's been used by the British royal family for over one thousand years. Built in the 11th century during William The Conqueror's time, it has been used consistently since Henry I, more recently gaining appreciation as the favoured residence of Elizabeth II.

The town of Windsor is very close to the town of Eton, which is just across the River Thames. The famous Eton College is here, which has produced 20 of the 55 Prime Ministers of the UK, along with a few more notable names.

Would you like to go to Windsor or Eton?
