Kensington Palace
Melhor época para visitar
Visit on a weekday morning right when gates open at 9:30 AM to avoid the biggest crowds. Summer months (July-September) are the only time the State Rooms are open, so plan ahead.
Dicas para economizar
Tickets cost £30 for adults, but children under 17 go half price and under-5s enter free. A family ticket saves about 15%, and the London Pass includes entry with skip-the-line access.
Recomendado para
History enthusiasts, Royal family followers, Architecture lovers, Families with older kids

Sobre
Fatos rápidos: O Sunken Garden do palácio foi transformado num memorial para a Princesa Diana em 2017, com 4.000 flores sazonais que florescem em diferentes épocas do ano. Mais de 500.000 visitantes passam pelos seus portões de ferro forjado anualmente, muitos esperando ver um membro da realeza a acenar da varanda ou uma oportunidade de foto de bebé real junto ao Lindo Wing nas proximidades.
Destaques: O palácio ainda tem uma lavandaria em funcionamento que passa a ferro os lençóis da Rainha com um cilindro de 150 anos, e por vezes consegue-se sentir o cheiro do amido de lavanda a pairar pelas salas de estado. No piso superior, uma porta secreta disfarçada de estante de livros permitia outrora que o pessoal real se movimentasse entre alas sem ser visto, um truque vitoriano que ainda engana os visitantes hoje.
Dicas de quem conhece
- Skip the audio guide queue by downloading the free app on your phone before you arrive.
- The Changing of the Guard happens at 11:00 AM but show up by 10:15 for a spot at the front gates.
- Photography is banned inside the State Rooms, but the garden and exterior shots are fair game from the front lawn.
- Wear comfortable shoes: the State Room tour covers nearly a kilometer of marble floors and red-carpeted corridors.
