Informations supplémentaires:
St James's Park has been at the centre of the country's royal and ceremonial life for more than four hundred years. Royal ambitions and national events have shaped many of the features in the park. Every year millions of Londoners and tourists visit St James's Park, the oldest of the capital's eight Royal Parks. The park includes The Mall and Horse Guards Parade and is at the heart of ceremonial London, providing the setting for spectacular pageants including the annual Trooping the Colour. The building in the background is the Horse Guards. Horse Guards is the building with a clock tower over an archway, and remains the official entrance to St James's and Buckingham Palace. Horse Guards dates from the eighteenth century and was designed by William Kent, the then Chief Architect to George II. The building is guarded by two mounted cavalry troopers of The Queen's Life Guard who are posted outside from 10am to 4pm daily. The Life Guard change takes place here at 11:00am daily and 10:00am on Sundays.
