    MANCHSTER, ENGLAND, May 03, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Trooping the Colour is a fantastic military parade that has taken place in the English capital since around 1700 - it was restored in 1820 following the accession of King George VI to the throne - and now coincides with the Queen's birthday festivities on June 13th.

Horse Guards Parade in St James's Park provides a stunning backdrop to this event, which includes traditional pageantry and ceremony as the Queen carries out an inspection of troops from the Household Division.

A London tourist agency notes that the LateRooms.com provides best deals for people to stay in London hotels to see the showcase.

Other elements of the celebration include the firing of guns in Green Park and the Tower of London, as well as a flypast by planes from the Royal Air Force, which is observed by the Royal Family from the palace balcony.
