Kensington Palace is a royal palace in the Chelsea district. It has been one of the residences of the British royal family since the 17th century. It is the former residence of Princess Diana and the residence of the Prince William. The palace contains Queen Victoria's baptized rooms and royal court costumes from 1760 to the present, including Queen Mary's wedding dresses, Queen Elizabeth II's homewear and gowns, and many exquisite accessories.
Although Princess Diana has left us, she has not been forgotten by her nationals who loved it. Today, there are still many people offering flowers. Kensington Palace also created a pavilion dedicated to the life story of Princess Diana and her high-quality dress style.

Additional Information
Introduction
What was constructed for the Earl of Nottingham in the seventeenth century wound up home to Diana, Princess of Wales in 1981. Prior ever, Queen Victoria was conceived here. Today it is the low maintenance living arrangement of William and Kate. You can find some brilliant shows in this royal residence that has been home to such a large number of solid and persuasive ladies. Updates finished in March 2012 improve the experience for those not sufficiently fortunate to live on these delightful grounds with new shows that incorporate a portion of Diana's dresses, repaired greenery enclosures, and "Victoria Revealed"; in which you hear the queen' s stories in her own words. Also, new shops and bistros have been incorporated.
Beautiful palace where the royal princes live. Huge green area surrounding it perfect for a weekend stroll.
The former home of Diana, the Princess of Wales, the lovely palace [parts open to the public] is an 8 minute bus ride away. It overlooks Kensington Gardens which lead into the equally lovely Hyde Park.
I love Kensington Palace! Nice and beautiful experience. As everything in England it's expensive but it is worth it. Love the New Diana's Garden, beautiful.
Visit the previous home of Queen Victoria, Princess Diana, and the now current home of Prince William and Kate. Harry lives here too in a cottage on the property. The gardens are beautiful and free to visit. The palace exhibits were interesting; you'll learn a lot about Queen Victoria, her quick ascension to the throne at only 18, and her beloved husband Prince Albert. You'll see her wedding dress, and also on view was a special exhibition covering the royals' fashion with dresses worn by Queen Elizabeth II, her sister Margaret, and Princess Diana. Very cool!
If you go to London this is most definitely one of the places to see. A nice reprieve that is in the heart of the city without feeling that way!
