During our 2014 England holiday we had the opportunity to visit the Changing the Queen's Guard Ceremony in front of Buckingham Palace.
The colourful ceremony with the traditional red tunics and the bearskin hats is set to music and a must for every London tourist!

The daily ceremony starts officially at 11:30 a.m., but for a good viewing standpoint you should arrive earlier!

And last but not least we witnessed the changing the guard at London Tower
