Sometimes it serves as a meetingplace (e.g. for protestors); a location for different gatherings like for e.g. in winter lots of Russian expatriates come to celebrate the Orthodox Christmas, in July it is the focal point for celebration of sexual minorities.

Sometimes people come here to watch concerts or the broadcasting of important events such as Olympic games and football matches.
There are some interesting things to see: the famous bronze lions that are situated in front of the statue of Admiral Horatio Nelson’s statue (it commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar) and the fountains. At the back of the Trafalgar square (directions are given if you were to face the Nelson’s statue and have your back to Big Ben), there is the National Gallery where you can always find excellent exhibitions. To the right there is a very famous church – St Martin-in-the-Fields – where there are numerous evening recitals of classical music.
