She received
a rapturous welcome from the hordes of enthusiastic onlookers who
had gathered to catch a glimpse of the monarch.
And
everyone agreed the experience had been worth standing around on
a gloomy Sheffield day for.
"I'm
very excited about the visit," said Wei Yuan, from China, who
is in Sheffield until July with her friend Jun Feng Xian.

Yuan was "very excited" about the royal visit |
"The
Queen is very well known in China and we are very lucky to see her
as we are only in Sheffield for four months."
Pam
McClean, from Sandygate, Sheffield, revealed she had met Her Majesty
in person.
"I
met the Queen some years ago in London when she was unveiling a
portrait in Church House, Westminster," she said.
"She
has a real presence when she walks into a room - her smile is unforgettable."
For
Fred Thorpe and Margaret Spark - over from Canada to visit their
sister Brenda Haigh from Bradfield, Derbyshire - the chance to see
The Queen was the perfect way to end their holiday.
"It's
marvellous," said Ms Spark.
"I
saw The Queen when she visited British Columbia in Canada last year
and I'm a big fan of the royals.
"To
see her again in Sheffield is the perfect way to end our vacation."
