A visitor standing in Downing Street will see the famous black door and black brick front.
Sixty years ago, the Government decided to clean the building.
They discovered that the original colour of the bricks was yellow! Two hundred years of pollution was to blame.
And that black door? Well, the original colour was green, but the Government painted every black again.
Once inside the dorr, you can visit aproximately a hundred rooms. Over the years the Prime Minister´s official residence has extended into adjacent buildings, with dozens of rooms connected by a labyrinth of corridors.
Certainly is a amazing house.
