The Queen's Gallery London

Art fit for a Queen

""The Queen's Gallery" in London is the Queen's very own collection of art! The best part? Since very few tourists know about it, you will feel like a king!"

Ever wondered what works of art the Queen owns? You don't have to wait for a personal invitation from Liz herself. Instead you can wander the Queen's Gallery at Buckingham Palace and see for yourself!

Being Queen has its privileges. Not only do you get to wear a crown, you also have access to many priceless works of art. Visiting the Queen's Gallery will give any art lover a chance to enjoy getting to know numerous paintings and drawings. Since few tourists know of this place, you won't have to jostle to view each painting. How very royal! And unlike many museums, the audio guide is included in the admission price. That means you'll get much more from your visit.

The Queen's Gallery is also worth seeing for the surroundings itself. Again, many of us will never be invited to have tea at Buckingham Palace, but for the price of admission, you can enter part of the palace and share the artistic treasures that the Queen enjoys.
