The main attraction in London is Buckingham Palace, which has been the
residence of the royal family of Great Britain since the first day of its
foundation.

Construction history
Buckingham Palace was built in 1703 for John Sheffield, Duke of
Buckingham, a famous statesman of England.

A little later, King George III bought all the premises and a huge area
around. In 1762, he completed the palace, adding to its splendor and
sophistication worthy of monarchs.

from where the British monarchs greet their
subjects.

A special impression is left
by the changing of the guard
ceremony in front of the
main entrance.

the Court Division show an action
that has become a recognizable
symbol of London for a long time.
