答案
Buckingham Palace
Buckingham Palace is the official London residence of the British monarch.The Palace is a setting for state occasions and royal entertaining,a base for many officially visiting Heads of State,and a major tourist attraction.It has been a rallying point for British people at times of national rejoicing,crisis or grief."Buckingham Palace" or simply "The Palace" commonly refers to the source of Press statements issued by the offices of the Royal Household.
In the Middle Ages,Buckingham Palace's site formed part of the Manor of Ebury.It had several Royal owners from Edward the Confessor onwards and was also the object of much property speculation.(A loophole in the lease of Charles I allowed the area to revert back to royal hands in the 18th century.) Precursors of Buckingham Palace were Blake House,Goring House,and Arlington House.
Originally known as Buckingham House,the building forming the core of today's palace was formerly a large townhouse built for the Duke of Buckingham in 1703 and acquired by King George III in 1762 as a private residence.It was enlarged over the next 75 years,principally by architects John Nash and Edward Blore,forming three wings around a central courtyard.Buckingham Palace finally became the official royal palace of the British monarch on the accession of Queen Victoria in 1837.The last major structural additions were made in the late 19th and early 20th Century,when the large East wing facing The Mall was added,and the former State entrance,Marble Arch,was removed to its present position near Speakers' Corner in Hyde Park.The East Front was refaced in Portland stone in 1913 as a backdrop to the Victoria Memorial,creating the present-day 'public face' of Buckingham Palace,including the famous balcony.
The original early 19th century interior designs,many of which still survive,included widespread use of brightly coloured scagliola and blue and pink lapis,on the advice of Sir Charles Long.King Edward VII oversaw a partial redecoration in a Belle epoque cream and gold colour scheme.Many smaller reception rooms are furnished in the Chinese regency style with furniture and fittings brought from the Royal Pavilion at Brighton and from Carlton House following the death of King George IV.The Buckingham Palace Gardens are the largest private gardens in London,originally landscaped by Capability Brown,but redesigned by William Townsend Ailton of Kew Gardens and John Nash.The artificially-created lake was completed in 1828 and is supplied with water from the Serpentine,a lake in Hyde Park.
The State Rooms form the nucleus of the working Palace and are used regularly by The Queen and members of the Royal family for official and State entertaining.Buckingham Palace is one of the world's most familiar buildings and more than 50,000 people visit the Palace each year as guests to banquets,lunches,dinners,receptions and the Royal Garden Parties.
