Travel Photo: London’s Buckingham Palace

I snagged this photograph of London’s Buckingham Palace in April of 2012. Early spring is a wonderful time to visit London as the parks are full of flowers in bloom and the summer crowds are months away. As you can see in the photograph, crowds were beginning to form for the daily changing of the guard that occurs from April through July, and every other day in other months.
If you’d like to get a tour of Buckingham Palace, you’ll want to visit in August and September as the rest of the year the property is used by the Queen as her London residence and for state parties.
