If you park yourself right opposite the gates at 10:50am, the guards will march right in front and past you on their way to Buckingham Palace for change of guards . Fantastic stuff and not as crowded .

The Duke of York loves the sight of his own belly button. Building is beautiful, tho. Also, no phones allowed.

Britannica

The palace was restored in the early 19th century, following a fire that destroyed everything but a redbrick gatehouse

HISTORY UK

Henry VIII built a palace here on the site of a leper hospital . Since 1698 it has been the official royal residence in London, which is why foreign ambassadors are still ‘to the Court of St.James’.

Es el palacio más antiguo de Londres y aunque hace dos siglos que ningún soberano vive allí se dogue sosteniendo comp resodencia real y aun es un palacio de trabajo. Allí fue velada Lady Di en privado

One of the secrets of the success of the British monarchy is that though it lives in palaces & travels in Rolls-Royces, it also clearly has middle class tastes in decor, behaviour & interests. More: - National Post
