HMS Warrior

The HMS Warrior is one of the British Navy's historic vessels, and right now it's anchored in the port of Portsmouth, in what is considered to be the Historic Dockyard. The ship was launched in 1860 and, at that time, it was one of the most important ships in the English fleet at Queen Victoria's time. Today, you can visit it as part of a visit to the historic Portsmouth. It's an interesting ship because it shows a time of transition in the history of navigation. The ship works both with a sail and steam, but that simple fact made it enter retirement shortly after its construction. A visit to the harbor takes about a half hour, but during that time you're transported to another era.
