Trafalgar Square

Located in central London, Trafalgar Square commemorates a British Naval victory in 1805, and is a wide open public space built around a central tower. The tower is guarded by four lion statues, and there are several other statues elsewhere in the square.

Also in the square is a gorgeously-lit fountain, and a Christmas tree in December. The space has been the setting for political demonstrations in the past, and today is a popular place for New Year's Eve celebrations.
