＊2014夏天，勇闖歐洲自助旅行→[後記]出走：我的英法德奧小旅行&行程記錄

原本打定主意不去白金漢宮參觀，因為票實在是太貴了，一個人要￡19.75，暈倒，可是今天點開信箱的時候發現LondonPass寄了一封白金漢宮開放參觀的信，最後想想又讓我手滑了，畢竟白金漢宮可不是天天都可以參觀的。

（點我看如何購買London Pass→[英國]預訂：喔耶！買到9折的倫敦通行證London Pass）

藉由London Pass訂票的網站在這裡Buckingham Palace Tour Tickets

今年白金漢宮開放參觀的時間是2nd August - 28th September 2014，預定參觀的票價如下：

Adult: £19.75
Over 60/Student (with valid ID): £18.00
Child (under 17): £11.25
Child (under 5): Free

可以參觀的部分是下面兩個地方：

國事聽State Rooms 

The Palace has an incredible 19 state rooms which are used to entertain visitors with lavish Banquets, speeches and famously the Pipers. The State rooms are beautifully furnished with treasures from the Royal Collection including paintings by Rembrandt, Rubens and Poussin as well classic furniture from England and France.

During the Queens annual visit to Balmoral in Scotland from August to September the State Rooms are opened to visitors and are laid out as they are during state visits.

花園The Garden

Known as the “walled oasis in the middle of London” Buckingham Palace’s garden is as stunning as the building with over 350 different species of wild flowers. The finale of a visit is a walk along the south side of the garden with views over the famous lake.

如果沒有London Pass的話，這裡是Royal Collection Trust的官方網站，裡面有不只是白金漢宮，還有溫莎城堡或是其他特殊展覽都接在上面訂票，稍微看了一下，今年的State Rooms還有Royal Childhood特展，想參觀的話，也可以直接從網站上面買套票。

逆看看，就是這封又讓我手滑的信。

1、點開信件中的網址，就是那個GET YOUR TICKET，就可以進到訂票網址了，看到BOOK ONLINE NOW點進去就對了。

2、接下來會看到一個要你輸入你當初購買London Pass時候的訂單編號，打他打上去點選continue。

3、選擇想要參觀的時間。

4、選擇想要參觀的場次，有11:15、14:15、15:15和16:00，點選後會看到右上方的紅色數字，代表的就是那個時段所剩的票數。選好後點BOOK NOW。

5、確認訂購資訊無誤之後，輸入訂購人的資料，點pay by credit card。

6、接下來填寫信用卡資料，點PROCEED就可以完成刷卡了。

7、看到這個表示預定完成囉，接下來去剛剛填寫的e-mail就會看到預定完成的信件，到時候拿著確認信去售票亭就可以換票了。

信件中會告訴你去哪裡取票：The Ticket Office is located next to the Ticket Holders' Entrance on Buckingham Palace Road. (nearest Underground Station: Green Park, St James's Park or Victoria)
