[2025 London ] Travel Guide for Trafalgar Square (Updated Aug)

In Trafalgar Square visitors can see two beautiful fountains. Initially, they appeared here in 1840 and served, first of all, not as decoration, but in order to reduce the size of the square in order to avoid mass demonstrations. In 1939, the fountains were replaced with more modern ones, now they are decorated with bronze sculptures of a triton, a mermaid and dolphins. Everyone who is coming to the Trafalgar Square will see these beautiful fountains. Address: Trafalgar Square, London, WC2N 5DN. Tube station: Charing Cross and Leicester Square. #visitlondon #london #urbanexplorer #fountain

Trafalgar Square can rightly be called the heart of the capital of Great Britain. The three main streets of the Westminster Historic District, the Mall, Whitehall and the Strand, join here. The area is also considered the geographical center of London, it is called "zero kilometer" - here the countdown of the mileage of the main roads of the capital begins. Millions of tourists visit Trafalgar Square every year. There really is something to see here: Nelson's Column, four pedestals (three of which are crowned with monuments to King George IV and two generals), St. Martin's Church, the Admiralty Arch, the London National Gallery. #visitlondon #london #travelinspiration
