Tourist attraction · Charing Cross

"Trafalgar Square, with its fountains and the iconic Nelson Column surrounded by four lions, is London’s most popular public square. Located just in front of the National Gallery, Trafalgar Square is used for free cultural festivals, live street performances, political demonstrations, and public concerts. The Fourth Plinth stands tall in the northwest corner of the square and exhibits national and international artwork that is selected by a commissioning group every two years. Since March 2018, the piece displayed is The Invisible Enemy Should Not Exist by artist Michael Rakowitz, a replica of an artifact destroyed by the Islamic State in Mosul in 2005. The Fourth Plinth is free to view and a great way to experience London’s art scene if you don’t have enough time to visit a gallery." - MATADOR_NETWORK
