If you don’t know, let me tell you that the 60th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth’s reign is approaching. And, as expected, her majesty will surely be getting lots of wishes and gifts. However, special tribute from her nephew Viscount Linley is all that will steal the show away.

Queen is likely to receive Cunard’s stunning cruise liner, Queen Elizabeth that has been built at Italian shipyard and weighs 92,400-tonne. It’s has an estimated cost of 365 million pound, can carry 2092 passengers, a crew of 1021 and measures 179ft high and 964.5ft long.

The most expensive Jubilee present the Queen is likely to receive will be launched by her majesty on Monday and will set on its first voyage on Tuesday to Canary Islands. The liner is a complete luxury bonanza and has been crafted to relive the glamour and grandeur of the 1930s and 40.
