The United Kingdom and the world have bid farewell to Queen Elizabeth II.

On Monday evening she was laid to rest alongside her late husband Prince Philip, and her parents, in a private family ceremony away from the public glare of cameras and a global viewing audience.

Her state funeral service, which took place at Westminster Abbey, drew presidents, kings, queens and prime ministers from across the world. After, her cortege took the coffin to Windsor Castle west of London for a ceremony at St George's Chapel, her final resting place.
