Attractions - Buckingham Palace
First opened to the public in 1993 to finance Windsor Castle repairs, Buckingham Palace is the residence to Queen Elizabeth II which dates back to the early 19th century. During summer, almost 6,000 visitors per day throng the Palace to explore 19 state rooms which includes the Throne Room, Picture Gallery and Ballroom (the largest room in the Palace) used for investitures and banquets. A walk through the south side of the Palace garden is included in the extended visitor route. At the Royal Mews are displayed the Queen’s horses and carriages, including the Coronation Coach. Dedicated to changing exhibitions from the Royal Collection art and treasures, the Queen’s Gallery at Buckingham Palace is a permanent space. The Gallery which was built 40 years ago on the west front out of the former private chapel’s bomb-damaged ruins was opened by the Queen in 2002 to allow the public daily.
