Description

Visit Her Majesty The Queen’s official London residence and see two fascinating parts of Buckingham Palace. First, take a walk around the Royal Mews before entering the State Rooms and exploring the exquisite and historical rooms containing precious pieces from The Royal Collection.

Royal Mews
Begin with a look at the amazing State vehicles displayed in the Royal Mews. These iconic vehicles are used for State visits, the State Opening of Parliament, official engagement and, of course, coronations and royal weddings. Get up-close to the Gold State Coach which has been used for every coronation since George IV.

The newest addition to the fleet is the Diamond Jubilee State Coach, a beautiful vehicle made especially for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee in 2012. The vehicle combines classic style and craftsmanship with more modern technologies – an extraordinary example of modern tradition.

State Rooms of Buckingham Palace
Open to the public for a limited time each year, a visit to the Buckingham Palace is something you’ll never forget. Each of the 19 rooms is exquisitely decorated, from the 47-metre long Picture Gallery to the beautiful ballroom and throne room. See works of art from artists such as Rembrandt and Rubens and see the priceless sculpture and antique furniture.

Fashioning a Reign: 90 Years of Style from The Queen’s Wardrobe
Brand new for 2016, Fashioning a Reign marks Her Majesty the Queen’s 90th birthday. This incredible display features dresses, accessories and jewellery worn during important moments from the Queen’s eventful life. See items are worn during her coronation, state visits and even from her wedding to the Duke of Edinburgh.
