Where can one explore Admiral Nelson's ship, the HMS Victory?

Okay, let's talk about the HMS Victory and why it's found in Portsmouth. The HMS Victory is a hugely significant ship in British naval history, most famously known as Admiral Lord Nelson's flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. This battle was a decisive victory for the British against Napoleon's combined French and Spanish fleet, securing British naval dominance for a long time. Nelson, though he died during the battle, became a national hero. Now, after its active service, the HMS Victory was eventually moved to Portsmouth, which has a long and important history as a major naval base. It's been carefully preserved there as a museum ship, allowing visitors to step back in time and explore what life was like on board. While Lincolnshire and Cheshire are lovely counties, they don't have the naval history or facilities to house such a vessel. And while London has many historical attractions, the HMS Victory specifically resides in Portsmouth, making it the only place you can actually explore this iconic ship.
