check out this mammoth palace... by Krystynn
check out this mammoth palace with 600 rooms (!!) originally built for the Duke of Buckingham in the early 1700s (oops! Sorry... I can't quite remember the exact year! I must have fallen asleep in class whilst that lesson was taught... again!). Welcome to BUCKINGHAM PALACE.
Well, did you also know that Queen Victoria, the first monarch who lived here couldn't get used to the sight of the 1,000 drafty windows and chose instead to stay in another mammoth palace - yes, the Windsor Castle? As you know, the current monarch, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has also followed suit by making Windsor Castle her permanent home. Say, since nobody wants to live here, can I stay here, your Majesty???
