With the royal wedding of Prince William to Kate Middleton approaching, we present here the magnificent backdrop to the occasion, London itself. On Friday, April 29, the wedding procession will make its way from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey, passing some of the city’s most famous sites along the way. Here are some of the highlights.
