Impressive memorial in the roundabout in front of Buckingham Palace and probably one of the most visible objects on television broadcasts, hardly any other place has seen so much joy and drama - from the crowds at Victory Day at the end of the Second World War to the thousands of mourners after the death of Princess Diana .

The monument is 25 metres high and uses 2,300 tonnes of white Carrara marble. As well as Victoria, there are statues representing courage, constancy, victory, charity, truth and motherhood.

The central monument, created between 1906 and 1924, is by Sir Thomas Brock, but the whole design, including the Memorial Gardens, was conceived by Sir Aston Webb. The Memorial was formally unveiled by King George V in 1911.

Nice monument in front of the palace. Impressively built and definitely worth a visit.
