Behold The Royal Christmas Decorations Fit For A Palace!

Think your Christmas tree is the pinnacle of holiday cheer? Well, hold onto your sleigh because the royals are about to give you some serious festive competition! On Friday, December 7, the Historic Royal Palaces shared a stunning video on Twitter showing the setup of a magnificent Christmas tree outside Kensington Palace. That's right, the very same palace where Kate Middleton, Prince William, Meghan Markle, and Prince Harry call home in London.

Here’s the enchanting message that came with the video: “Watch the 30ft Christmas tree being installed and decorated outside Kensington Palace. This Christmas at Kensington, meet Victoria & Albert, try some festive crafts, and discover how the Victorians shaped Christmas.” Sounds magical, doesn’t it? Let’s dive into the royal holiday spirit with this exclusive clip!

This video has already amassed over 17,000 views and 182 retweets, proving just how much the world is ready to celebrate the season alongside the royal family. The staff at Kensington Palace went all out, decorating this towering tree in a way that's distinctly different from the holiday charm at Buckingham Palace. Just a few days earlier, on December 4, the royal family's official Instagram account gave us a sneak peek into how Queen Elizabeth’s iconic residence celebrates Christmas.

From Kensington to Buckingham: A Royal Holiday Tour

In the Buckingham Palace video, we got a glimpse of several smaller Christmas trees scattered across the first floor, each adorned in a regal and uniform style. Every tree sparkled with twinkling lights and delicate crown ornaments hanging gracefully from the branches. It was a sight to behold, radiating elegance and tradition.

“Every year, three trees are placed in the Marble Hall — and a garland is fixed along the grand staircase,” the caption explained. “The custom of displaying Christmas trees was introduced to Britain in the late 18th century by Queen Charlotte, consort of King George III, although it was a yew tree rather than a fir that was used. The Christmas tree became wildly popular thanks to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert in the 19th century. This year, the Christmas trees standing proudly at Buckingham Palace were grown right here in Windsor, England.” Talk about royal roots!
