"The horse guards and their parade off of Whitehall is a part of the Changing of the Guards ceremony. It’s amazing to see this long standing tradition. Whitehall houses the Household Cavalry Museum and is the working headquarters of the Household Division, which provides the King’s Guard. Horse Guards at Whitehall is not only a functional military headquarters but also a symbol of the ceremonial and historic traditions within the British monarchy.

"The changing of the guard takes place at 11am everyday (10am on Sunday), and there's a guard inspection at 4pm. It's best to time your visit for the changing of the guard but even if you can't it's worth walking by. "
