Follow the latest news from the coronation of King Charles here
Coronations are a chance to bring together the population while inviting the wider world.
On Saturday, pomp and pageantry were at the fore, as Britain's armed forces staged the biggest ceremonial military operation since Queen Elizabeth's 1953 coronation, ending with a 4,000-strong coronation procession of servicemen and women from around the globe, that wound its way through the heart of the capital.
Photos from 1953 and 2023 show how much stays the same.
In 1953 there were arches across The Mall while in 2023 British and Commonwealth flags lined the route. In both images the mass of people is striking.
The images show how the ceremonies separated by decades are linked to others centuries earlier and create the tradition that becomes the memory for a generation.
Both royals, at Westminster Abbey in their coronation dress, appear serene and serious as they look to the future. Few would have guessed Queen Elizabeth II would become Britain’s longest-serving monarch.
One of the best-loved and most famous royal moments is the Buckingham Palace balcony appearance — a time for the royal family to share with the supporters outside the palace. All those waving from the balcony stayed in their ceremony dress.
Making the first balcony appearance of his reign King Charles looked relaxed, accompanied by Queen Camilla.
Back at Westminster, one last chance to show the moment the mother, Elizabeth, and then her son, Charles, became monarch.
It was the fulfilment of King Charles's destiny, but followed the death of his mother after a 70-year reign.

What is Reform?
Reform is a right-wing, populist party led by Nigel Farage, a former MEP who won a seat in the House of Commons last year at his eighth attempt and a prominent figure in the campaign for the UK to leave the European Union.
It was founded in 2018 and originally called the Brexit Party.
Many of its members previously belonged to UKIP or the mainstream Conservatives.
After Brexit took place, the party focused on the reformation of British democracy.
Former Tory deputy chairman Lee Anderson became its first MP after defecting in March 2024.
The party gained support from Elon Musk, and had hoped the tech billionaire would make a £100m donation. However, Mr Musk changed his mind and called for Mr Farage to step down as leader in a row involving the US tycoon's support for far-right figurehead Tommy Robinson who is in prison for contempt of court.
