Kensington Palace was visited as they were exhibiting Victoria Revealed in 2013. This again, is another beautiful palace, although it did seem much less grand and smaller than Buckingham Palace. Kensington Palace is a royal residence set in Kensington Gardens.

Visitors to the Palace can choose four different routes throughout the palace that offer  memorabilia of notable residents of the palace including William and Mary in the Queen’s State Apartments, the court of George I and II in the King’s State Apartments and the life of Queen Victoria in the rooms most associated with her. Another exhibit displays selections of Queen Elizabeth’s wardrobe in the 1950s, Princess Margaret from the 1960 and 70s and Diana, Princess of Wales in the 1980s during their fashion heyday.  The nearest tube stations are in  Queensway, Bayswater, Kensington High Street, or (slightly further) Gloucester Road.
