Royal Birthday Bash: 41-Gun Salute Honors King Charles
London celebrated King Charles’ 77th birthday in grand style with a thunderous 41-gun salute at Green Park on November 14th. The King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery, looking as regal as ever, fired the cannons under autumn skies, making sure the whole city heard the royal birthday wishes.
Tradition Meets Majesty in Green Park
The 41-gun salute in Green Park isn’t just a birthday serenade; it’s a time-honored tradition that stirs the hearts of royalists and tourists alike. As the artillery echoed across London, crowds gathered, phones at the ready, hoping to catch a glimpse of royal pomp.
Let’s be honest, most of us celebrate our birthdays with cake and maybe a dinner out—King Charles gets 41 cannon blasts and a parade! Now that’s what you call a royal upgrade. At 77, the King proves you’re never too old to party—especially if your party comes with a cavalry escort.
