Home Sweet Home: Buckingham Palace

More than 830,000 square feet of floor space, nearly 800
bedrooms, and 78 bathrooms; nearly 200 years of being the home of
the Royal Family--is there more to the story for Buckingham
Palace?

Queen Victoria, the first British monarch to live in Buckingham
Palace, moved in in 1837. The next year, she was the first
sovereign to leave from the Palace to travel to Westminster Abbey
for her coronation. Buckingham Palace has been the official
residence of the Royal family ever since. And the Palace has seen
it all--from the glories of celebrating weddings and wartime
victories to legends of drug use and wild rock concerts. State
rooms, and ball rooms, and nearly 80 bathrooms. What else will
you find in our tour of Buckingham Palace?
