Buckingham Palace is the London residence and administrative headquarters of the monarchy of the United Kingdom. It has served as the official London residence of the UK’s sovereigns since 1837. Interestingly, when the Queen’s royal standard flag flies elegantly above the palace, the Queen is currently in residence at the palace; when the Union Jack billows elegantly in the wind, this signals that the Queen is elsewhere.
Just outside of Buckingham Palace you can observe one of the most famous London's attractions, the ceremony of the Changing of the Guard (also known as Guard Mounting). It takes place at 10:45 and typically lasts around 45 minutes.
