Description
Few landmarks are as instantly recognisable as Buckingham Palace, the grand heart of royal London and a must‑see whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth. Sitting proudly at the end of The Mall, the palace blends stately elegance with a sense of theatre, especially when the famous Changing of the Guard fills the forecourt with music, ceremony and crowd‑pleasing pageantry. Even from the outside, it’s an iconic photo stop and a brilliant way to soak up a bit of London’s old‑school grandeur.
When the State Rooms open seasonally, visitors can step inside to explore lavish interiors, glittering ballrooms and priceless artwork that bring the Palace’s working life into focus. It’s history told on a genuinely impressive scale, but never feels stuffy thanks to the spectacle and storytelling throughout. Whether you’re wandering past on a sunny afternoon or making a day of it, Buckingham Palace delivers maximum wow‑factor and remains one of the capital’s most enduring and atmospheric attractions.
