MUCH has been named after The Queen in the 70 years of her reign, from military honours to horse races, parks, hospitals and TfL’s under-construction Elizabeth Line. Some of the places and objects that bear her name, however, are rather more unusual. Here are some of our favourites:
A flower market: the Marché aux fleurs Reine Elizabeth II in Paris, France
the Queen Elizabeth Power Station in the (aptly named) town of Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada
