20 Secrets Buckingham Palace Is Hiding from Strangers
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 05. 2024
- Ever dreamed about living in a palace? Like Buckingham Palace, for example? Well, it’s a nice place, so why not? This ostentatious home is pretty old and huge, but the location is close to schools and shopping! And besides that, it’s got a lot of interesting secrets. When you learn about them you'll get a glimpse of what it's like to live there.
Did you know, for example, that the Royal family can receive treatment without leaving the palace? Or that the River Tyburn flows under the south wing of the palace, revealing the fact that the building was set up on swampland? Or that the site where the royal residence is located now was once occupied by a monastery. And some believe that’s the reason why the place is haunted by the ghost of a monk who used to live in that monastery...

SUMMARY:
- We all know that Buckingham Palace is huge, but just to help you comprehend its size, get ready for this information - it has 775 rooms!
- Sometimes you need to get cash fast, so you go to the bank or start looking for an ATM. But if you're a member of the Royal family, you can forget about all that hassle. All you have to do is go to the basement of Buckingham Palace because there's an ATM right there!
- Chandeliers can be lowered to a manageable level simply by pressing a button on the remote control.
- Imagine 30 football fields and you'll get the idea about the size of the Palace garden that stretches for 39 acres.
- You probably already have the idea that Buckingham Palace isn't simply a building, but more like a mini-town, since the royalty can get pretty much any service there.
- Some used to say that there's a secret tunnel that connects Buckingham Palace and London Tube. It's just a rumor, but the royal residence does have tunnels.
- During the long history of Buckingham Palace, there were a few cases of ordinary people sneaking inside.
- If you ever visit London and find yourself near the palace, you can find out in no time if the Queen is at home. When she's there, the Royal Standard flag is flown over her residence.
- As you can guess, The Queen and all other members of the Royal family have a pretty packed-up schedule. That's why it's so important for them to know the right time in order not to be late.
- Obviously, when you're the Queen, you just have to host a lot of events and functions. More than 50,000 guests visit Buckingham Palace every year.
- If you doubt the Queen will invite you to one of her parties any time soon, you can always take a tour of Buckingham Palace.
- In 1953, a helicopter landed in the palace garden for the first time, and since then, that spot served as a helicopter landing area without any special construction for many years.
- When there's a Royal birth, they place an official announcement outside the main entrance of the Palace to let everybody know if it's a boy or a girl and the weight of the newborn as well.

BRIGHT SIDE I have twice 1 to go on school trip and 2 to go to London Zoo
Dhu. I live in london
Yea I live in London😁

Wouldn't you love to play hide and seek in Buckingham palace. The game would probably last 10 years.
lets go
More like a million years
Yeah ! 😉
Arjunan Rukku MR BEAST FAN!!!
Itz_ Singapore are you
I lived and worked at Buckingham Palace for over 2 years. It was the most amazing place and it was one of the best times of my life.
Are you sure
@Katie Osman I haven't worked in bukinlam palace I am just a child
hai guys can i get free food 😥
@@therealweezer emm no
Wow that is amazing
I'm impressed by the fact that they don't waste their food even though they're royals ❤
They also have to feed the Royal Household
True
Yess
I find that hard to believe
@@chevonjacobs6123 it’s true
It was enormous beyond imagination. The palace truly shows the art, style,taste, discipline and modesty of the Royals. If I had an opportunity to visit London, I would love to visit Buckingham Palace. I am impressed from the fact that being Royals, they do not waste their food which is incredible.
You just said it was enormous😐
You means it shows modesty when it was freaking 200 bedrooms? Modesty has got a different meaning in your book!
When he said tik tok I thought he meant the app. Imagine the queen doing the renegade
Lol
😂😂
Lol
Wot
Lol

BRIGHT SIDE that is a lot thanks for telling
ATM in the basement? Next to the dungeon?
Cool
Now we all know that thats alot for a giant palace.
The flag indicating the Queen is present makes it so much more personal!
Looks traditional, Union Jack is just boring UK flag I see all the time
@@myfirstcommercialsukltd.1239 I do agree!The royal standard flag looks so much better.Should be half mast when the queen is out and about instead of having the Union Jack!
@@fujiar0018 The Half Mast looks weird tho
it does not
@@AsfandShahid Nice to know te Queen is there though!
I once visited the palace. The Queen has her own palace stables, where you can see the coach she rode in for her coronation.
REALLY YOUR NOT KIDDING
Same I paid for a tour it was amazing
78 bathrooms, no waiting... But there could be a half-mile walk...
Lol
May byeee
Aye theres 78 bathrooms there's probably a bathroom right next to him
It's 78 bathrooms, not lavatories.
True true true true
To the beautiful person scrolling through the messages, i wish you a great day and a blessing year.
Bright side the best.
Small channel love❤
Thanku, right back at ya!
Likewise
You have a bless day to
Thankx. You t🌻🌻 have a Great Day ! 😊😊😊
Thanks so much! :o)
POV: you watched it after she died 🥲
Yeah 😭😭😭😭
yea, im sobbing 😭😭
Well I did:(
"Buckingham" is said without the h in Britain. Same with almost every word with -ham on the end
It sounds more professional, To Be Honest I think it's funny how we use No “H” Haha.
They make r's h and h no sound
we don’t say am tho we say ham
edit : as the food
What about West Ham lol 'west am'
Sounds more posh, although I'm only 9 years old
I wonder how Bright Side found out all of this information 🤔
I know right....
Google is life these days
They are working with the FBI
Plot Twist : Bright side is actually a Royal him self 😮😲
@@hawaslifexx4480 Lier
200 bedrooms but only 78 bathrooms. How does that work out
Most Palace have joint bathrooms. 2 or 3 rooms sharing 1 bathroom.
I think it works out because not everyone has to go (or bathe or shave) at the same time.
Built before most people had inside toilets !
Idk I have no idea
I was also thinking about it!!!.
Thanks for these info. Its so enlightening.
“I can’t imagine so many rooms in one building!” I can, it’s called a hotel. 🤣
This is how many people thought it was tik tok app when he said tik toks everywhere
⬇️
Yeah lol
Yeah that’s true
Same
Mee
@@aranparamalingam1533 meee
Post codes in the UK (never Zip codes) are very specific, many large houses/buildings and blocks of flats have their own post codes. So much so that a house or flat number and the post code is enough to deliver a letter.
at the ATM the Queen can get money with pictures of herself on it :) She can use these as I.D. when she goes out. :)
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Buckingham palace isn't considered "Really Old" by us brits. It's oldest parts are only just over three hundred years old, the facade was added much later. 300 years is nothing in Europe. Many of us live in houses older than that, even here in London. Windsor, one of the queens other residences is 1000 years old- that's really old!
When you said *Tik Tok's everywhere* , I thought it was *TikTok* app and that the royals owned a TikTok account😂😂
Sameeeee
same
Same here
Same
Same my friend
I love your channel so sooooo much💕✨️
The secret which impressed me the most was that there is no food wastage.
Hard to believe
6:15 Says Queen Victoria was the first resident of Buckingham Palace, shows a picture of Queen Elizabeth I 🤦♀️
Edit: Wow. I’ve never had this many likes. I!m shaken, thankyou
Uhh,that isn't queen elizabeth.
Its Ello lol
@Бабушка ??? Oh good.
@@zarkzark2994
Haha trying to sound smart
@@kaiserwilhelmii671 I don't think what i said sounds smart smh.
We in Britain call it post code not zip code
Yep
Yep
Yup
Yes
It's the correct way of saying it.
Number 2, not a crumb goes to waste.
I love that.
I'm impressed that they are actually eating the spares.
I am a hopeless Anglophile from Michigan USA but even I learned a few new things about Buck House that I did not know. The river, the Palace's origins and the number of bathrooms and clocks for instance. I'd love to go spelunking around in those tunnels, that's for certain.
6:16 Says Queen Victoria was the first resident of Buckingham Palace, shows a picture of Queen Elizabeth I 🤦♀️
You copied it
who cares as long as it potrays white woman dressing like long time ago
@@lawrences6824 said like a person who has issues with history class. Did your history teacher give you an F again?
@@lawrences6824 they literally dress nothing a like!! Elizabeth I is Elizabethan fashion and Queen Victoria is....... VICTORIAN FASHION!!
hahahahahahha
Great Info!
Rest In Peace our beloved Queen✨🕊️
I know what you are talking about
Anyone notice that "chef" was incorrectly spelled as "chief"?
Liked, also noticed it
I am also your only like
Thanks for the update, Capt. Obvious.
Ah, but they don't use French words (that was in another video)...
Yeah, waited for someone to comment
9:55 The best chefs or chiefs 😂 Press like if you noticed that
I wish they would fix that!
Mom: How do you write chef son?
Me: Chief!
I noticed that but i wont like
sHAMHYQAL iSKANDAR
yeah me too.
@@Kazekuno what happened to my name
What a cool palace/ place!
so amazing cant wait to travel to the uk
The UK does not use the term “zip codes” but “post codes” 🙂
Do you know that cause you are english
Yes we use post code and I got confused when he said zip codes
SWI is the most expensive postcode in the world.
Same same in Canada .
@@Mig-nr8hc Actually we say postal codes but yes not zip codes
*I HAVE ONE QUESTION ONLY HOW DO THEY KNOW ALL OF THE SECRETS*
Google search maybe
They are open secrets
Me too.........😟
@Koshiku_ D An open secret is a concept or idea that is "officially" secret or restricted in knowledge, but in practice may be widely known; or it refers to something that is widely known to be true but which none of the people most intimately concerned are willing to categorically acknowledge in public.
Me too
Really enjoy your channel.
Loved the the garden
Your picture of Queen Victoria at 6:16 is QUEEN ELIZABETH!!!!!
☺️😘☺️😘😘☺️☺️🤔💞
Queen Elizabeth wasn’t even born during that time :/ it’s queen victoria
Yes, I was about to comment that. 😁
@@lukanetteand_marichat_ship486 no they meant Queen Elizabeth I
@@jecksjournal so my sweet friend how are you doing today and
7:36 imagine you kept alarms on all the clocks.
Great video!
Went on a school trip aged about 8 years old to Buckingham palace and tower of London then had tea on river Thames boat. Amazing
I love you all 😍 you make so knowledgeable videos, HATS OFF TO YOU 🎩🎩🎩🎩
anik s thanx! Glad you like the videos!
*Bright Side,May you do one on Windsor Castle,too?*
Imagine being the "IT" in a game of tag and catching all of the other players.
Great, bright side uses the Lydian mode as the opening music, which is Yaman in Indian classical music. ❤️
"None of the guests have to wait in line"
Except we probably will anyway. It's what we do in Britain.
🤣
True
So true 😂
As far as i know there are 775 rooms inside the buckingham palace, because thats what came out of my research,but there are also a lot of truths that really surprised me💖
In Ancient Egyptian culture The Ancient Egyptian King's Palace always had the Nile flowing through Palace.The Nile was extremely important.
Wow. So amazing
I got goosebumps listening these facts
9:53
Narrator: “Best Chefs”
Video: “Best Chiefs”
Mmmm 🤔
👇🏻 Make this blue, if you noticed it also 😂
No because it's noticeable
And also 'labyrinth' - video 'labrynthe'
Oh look the dislike button turns blue too!
I saw it
@@tatortots2320 i did that
Mrbeast would love to play hide and seek here
Definitely
Chandler might have a chance for winning
YEA BUT IF HE RENTED THE PALACE FOR A DAY MR BEAST GO BROKE
@@getahunamogne548 ok you didn’t have to be so rude
😐
Rest and peace queen Elizabeth, you will always be loved.
I liked the fact about when the queen is away and when she is there
For many years now the Queen has preferred to live at Windsor Castle. In the mornings, The Duke of Edinburgh would drive her to the Palace in a green London Taxi. The Queen would sit in the back and start her daily work on the State Papers, while Philip would swear at other drivers. They always had a van of security following them, and some police on motorcycles buzzing about, but it didn't do to get in Philip's way!
In the last two years, she has spent nearly all her time at Windsor Castle.

England uses "Post Codes" not "Zip Codes", this important to note as looking for assistance with addresses can come in handy during visits.
excalibur2k1 The United Kingdom, not just England.
So pleased that you correctly called our flag “ The Union Flag “ it should only be called a Union Jack when flown from a Ship - Nice video and Greetings from the U.K. 🇬🇧
hello
Man how do know that are you like sneak in the palace or something how do you know how many room but anyway i love your video.
If I was invited then I definitely sneaked into the 78 bathrooms 😂😂
And flush all the 78 toilets
Irl Buckingham palace is beautiful although as a Brit I don't fully agree with the monarchy, as they aren't really that special apart from their powerful family background; e.g. the current royal family has been in power from all the way you back to William the conqueror in 1066 has had so much protection. Our national anthem isn't even about the country it's all about our monarch and unlike many pleople think the queen isn't allowed to involve herself in politics and therefore she is just a figurehead that represents our state and stands as a face to think of across the commonwealth:
· cameroon
· The Gambia
· Ghana
· Kenya
· Kingdom of eSwatini
· Lesotho
· Malawi
· Mauritius
· Mozambique
· Namibia
· Nigeria
· Rwanda
· Seychelles
· Sierra Leone
· South Africa
· Uganda
· United Republic of Tanzania
· Zambia
· Antigua

· The Bahamas
· Belize
· Canada
· Dominica

· Cyprus
· Malta
· Fiji Islands
· Australia
· Kiribati
· Nauru
· New Zealand
· Papua New Guinea
· Samoa
· Solomon Islands

· Tuvalu
· Vanuatu
Those are all nations that see the queen as or use the queen as a figurehead.
I went to the Buckingham palace just yesterday and he wasn’t lying about the palace being humongous!!
My Mum used to have a office in londin and you could about just see over the fence into the royal garden!
It it true I promise!
I'm working as a Royal guard at Buckingham Palace and every guard has to follow A rule And that rule is that you have to be quiet to strangers.
7:18 who else thought the queen was gonna start singing hit or miss? 😂😂😂😂😂👌
They do not have a ATM they literally have a money printing machine in the basement (seriously)
😂😂
That would just decrease the value of British currency.
Yes
They never said that it was just printing money it's like any other ATM
⚽️ you meant
I have been there many times in the past but did not know two things:
1. Point No 12#: The palace has its own Postcode as SW1A 1AA
2. Point No 7: Job of the Flag Sergeant.
Ok so my dream once was to meet the Queen but then my grandmother said “ that’s impossible because you need to be very important or something like that” so because of that I still want to meet the Queen one day ☺️☺️☺️😇😇.
Hope u do one day !
Interesting little fact. Everyone in the UK has either met a member of the Royal family or seen them in real life.

You definitely do have to line up for the loo. Only a few are available for public use. I certainly waited.
if they are secrets... how do you know?
Ye
I think he is working with a fbi spy that wears normal clothes and spy things xd jk
However, the first monarch to name it as their official residence was Queen Victoria... in 1837. That was a sketch of Queen Elizabeth I. Almost 250 years between them.
“Was queen Victoria” *Shows photo of Elizabeth I* (6:14)
How long did it take to build that giant castle ( and the rooms) ? I'm impressed, would've given up at the first window xD
I wouldn't want to be the cleaning lady 😂 God bless you all ❤️❤️❤️❤️😇😇😇

2000 subscribers with a few videos Support please not really. There was a documentary a few years ago about a journalist that got hired on and said the pay isn’t that great. Might have changed since then though.
You do know the UK is England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales and before people start saying but I thought it was just England you can stop talking because I live in Scotland (The UK)🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🇯🇪
Yess finaly people will call me brittish or scottish not English
That’s so helpful
I enjoyed the whole video
That palace is no ordinary palace... C'mon, THAT PLACE IS *HUGE* !!! I'd say there are *ENDLESS* possibilities when it comes to ghosts.
My great grandmothers mini mansion had 16 acres as my great grandfather worked as a gardener in the royal palace and was paid sooo much.
Then he died in the war and lost all of the money😵😞😞
I ve got 40 acres and a masion
Sml
I think every secret is very impressive!
The one who impressed me is the flag they change it if the queen is away and change it back when the queen is home.
The underground tunnel was my favourite, I’m from England and I’ve been wanting to know how the queen goes places without cameras in her face and stuff like that
Favorite* no offense
@@SackboyLBP She's English, it's spelled "favourite" over in the UK and in many other countries and "favorite" in the USA
Never been in London and yes I agree the palace is hanted

it took about 20-30 minutes to get out through the garden.
I got a corgi plush.
