Kew Palace in Richmond upon Thames

You're standing at Kew Palace, right inside Kew Gardens, close to the River Thames. It's the smallest royal palace in the United Kingdom. To be honest, it looks more like a rich merchant's country house. And that's exactly what it was. Look at the red brick and those curving gables. That's why it's also called the Dutch House. Funny thing is, that style was actually more common in London and the east of England than in the Netherlands at the time.
