Kensington Palace
Located in Kensington Gardens, Kensington Palace has been the residence of the British monarchy for more than 300 years.
This huge country house built in red brick was reformed in 1689 to become the home of the monarchy for several generations.
Over the years, Kensington Palace has welcomed generations of the royal family, from William III, to the late Lady Diana, to Queen Victoria.
Like St. Paul's Cathedral, Kensington Palace was designed by Christopher Wren.
