London’s heart beats faster as the Life Guards clatter by UDDENLY, sharp against the humdrum roar of traffic, comes the clean clip of hoofbeats. Your S eye is caught by the bobbing scarlet of the Life Guards, or by sunlight blinking on the Horse Guards’ silver breastplates. All heads turn as the cavalry troop sweeps by with a brave jingle. London’s heart beats faster. Yours will, too. This is a daily scene from London’s passing show. It’s part of the ageless pageantry of Britain. In spring, summer, fall and winter, special red-and-gold days of pomp and circumstance await you.

It costs so little, nowadays, to visit this friendly country.
