A night time photo of The Tower of London taken from just outside the grounds at the north west corner on Remembrance Day 2018. The moat is filled with torches for the occasion. Shrubs encroach from the bottom of the frame and tree branches slightly overhang at the top. Modern buildings of Southbank are visible on the other side of the Thames at the right side of the frame.
As far as Palaces go, I'd wager The Tower of London (and more specifically The White Tower within) ranks highly for sordid tales.
Palace for a few, prison for many, execution site of three queens.
