British Traditions: Trooping the Colour



Trooping the Colour is a traditional British ceremony held every year in London on the official birthday of the Queen of King. Many soldiers, on horses or on foot, march across Horse Guards Parade carrying their “colours” (flags), and they salute the Queen or King as they march past. It is a very colourful ceremony and it is popular with tourists.
