Royal boat docks along the River Thames
Briefly

The Gloriana, a royal rowing barge commissioned for Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee, measures 84 feet long and features a design inspired by 18th-century paintings.
Commissioned in five months, Gloriana was named by the late Queen in memory of a character from a poem by Edmund Spenser, celebrating her heritage.
Boasting 23.5 carat gold leaf detailing and flooring from sweet chestnut trees on King Charles's estate, Gloriana reverberates luxury and historical significance.
Powered by an expert crew of 18 oarsmen and two electric engines, Gloriana continues to represent royal tradition, notably since her inauguration in 2012.
