Buckingham Palace is Queen Elizabeth II's official residence(寢宮).The State Rooms(國事廳)in it have been open to the public for the Summer Opening since 1993.At first,the Summer Opening was considered a way to raise money for repairing Buckingham Palace,but it became so popular that the Queen has continued to let visitors enjoy it every summer.The Queen is not at Buckingham Palace when it is open to the public--she goes to one of her country residences.
If you are visiting at a different time of the year,go to see the Changing of the Guard(換崗儀式).
