The White House, you can visit, you can tour.
If you win an election, you could live there.
Buckingham Palace is different.
It belongs to dynasts of one family forever, and the vast majority of its many rooms are only accessible to that family and their many servants.

Some feature photos taken from a helicopter or maybe a drone very high up, with one section of the palace exterior circled.
It's like a CIA intelligence photo where someone's taking an aerial shot of Buckingham Palace.
