One of the busiest, most crowded places in the city full of crowded squares. It’s the place to go to enjoy the pulsating best of London. The W hotel on one end has a nice lounge to see the sights from a height.
Leicester Square, right in the heart of London’s West End, is like a vibrant cultural hub.nnHere’s what you’ll find:nnTheater and Movies: Imagine a place where theaters and cinemas come alive. Leicester Square is that spot!nIf you are lucky to catch premiere night, you may actually get to see your movie stars.nAs you stroll through the Square garden, you’ll see cool sculptures honoring famous movies.nnStreet Performers: Constant flow of street artists playing music or drawing pictures. They add a dash of excitement to the square.nnNearby Gems: Just around the corner, visit the National Gallery amazing and free art or explore Chinatown endless eastern food offerings.nnShopping Fun: Lego and M&M are huge favorites for families.nnFood Adventures: As the sun sets, food stalls pop up. Grab a quick bite or sit down for a nice meal.nThe buzz of people chatting and forks clinking makes it feel alive!nnSo, when you’re in London, swing by Leicester Square.nIt can be too busy but it is always fun.
Visited with family friends and it was super fun! Great place to walk around and very lively and bustling! However there are smokers pretty much everywhere so if you're bringing young ones or someone with lung issues, highly recommend bringing a face mask!
There have Christmas market here, inside very nice decoration in this place. On Week day not too many people, we can enjoy Christmas atmosphere and shopping and also not too long queues for shopping and order food. Enjoy here!!
I was told the British love Xmas but, I must say, they really REALLY love. And I'm. Here. For it. Leicester square is just one area that keeps Xmas decorations up past the 1st week of January. I totally approve. LS is near covent garden which is a very happening area, much like time square in NYC. This is a small square that managed to fit a whole Christmas market there. I can imagine when/ if it ever snowed, it would look that much more magical.nCool place.
