Since 1837, when George III bought it for his wife, Queen Charlotte (yes, just like in Bridgerton!), this enormous estate has been one of the British royal family’s official residences, the King’s official London residence, and the headquarters for many official events and administrative offices. There are 775 rooms in total in the palace, and more than 50,000 people visit the property every year. The palace’s interiors are filled with ornate decorations, priceless works of art (including Vermeers, Rembrandts, and more), and so much history. The state rooms are open to visitors each summer.
