Royal Windsor Maze


Royal Windsor Maze

Levi had a great time racing around the Royal Windsor Maze just west of Windsor Castle. The site was a slum purchased by the government in 1910 and cleared so the view of the castle wouldn't be disturbed. The maze itself is a chess-themed puzzle: you start on the pawn and have to cross the king, queen, bishop, and knight exactly once each, then you end on the castle, aka the rook.
