===Chile=== [[File:Relevo de la guardia en La Moneda.jpg|thumb|A guard mounting ceremony at [[Palacio de La Moneda (Chile)|Palacio de La Moneda]].]] The changing of the guard ceremony is conducted every odd-numbered day, including Sundays, at [[La Moneda Palace]] in [[Santiago, Chile]] with the [[Carabineros de Chile]]'s Presidential Guard Group providing the guard, the changing of the guard has been taking place since 1851. A pair of mounted units lead the [[National Band of the Carabineros|Central Band]], Drums and Bugles of the Carabineros and the new guard, to the plaza in front of La Moneda where the departing detachment meets them. While patriotic and popular music is played, the colour guard emerges and salutes are exchanged between the old and new guards at the main gate and by the officers of each unit. The ceremony ends with the band, drums and bugles marching off with the old guard. The ceremony is an important tourist attraction that takes place in the [[Plaza de la Constitución (Santiago de Chile)|Plaza de la Constitución]] on alternate days at 10 a.m. However, when there are events in the Plaza de la Constitución, the ceremony is moved to the south façade of the Palacio de la Moneda to the [[Plaza de la Ciudadanía]].
