英国女王已经批准在2017年伦敦奥运会期间将圣詹姆斯王宫出租，每天的租金为3万英镑（约合30.5万元人民币）。英女王此举打破了500年的王室传统。在伦敦奥运会期间，商业公司可以租用圣詹姆斯王宫内的皇座室、壁画室以及安妮女王室举办派对聚会等活动，可以就近观看沙滩排球、马拉松以及游泳等项目的比赛，同时还能享受专属的王宫游览服务。一名消息人士称，官员们已经开始与那些可能对租用皇宫感兴趣的公司或慈善机构联系。另外，位于肯特郡的利兹城堡方面也于最近招募经纪，拟在奥运期间对外出租，城堡内房间每晚的费用最低为6.25万英镑，可享受高尔夫、游船夜游等全套服务。 A Royal palace is to be let out to companies for up to £30,000 a day during next year’s Olympic Games. In a break with nearly 500 years of Royal protocol, St James’s Palace has thrown open the doors to some of its most lavish state apartments for private firms to rent during the London Games. The Queen has personally approved the plans to allow businesses to take their pick of the Palace’s Throne Room, its Tapestry Room and the Queen Anne Room for glamorous parties. And wealthy pleasure-seekers can take advantage of another stately offer elsewhere - with Leeds Castle available to hire for the Olympics at £1million. Guests at St James's will enjoy an exclusive tour of the Palace as part of the exclusive celebrations. |
