Buckingham Palace

Description

The official residence of the British Monarchy.

The Changing of the Guard takes place several times a week at 11am (typically Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays).

During the summer months, when The King is not in residence, the main staterooms are open to the public to visit.

The entrance to the public tours is around the left side of the palace. Note that photography is not allowed inside the Palace if you are on a tour.
