Christmas Scenes: Trafalgar Square

Bill writes: After the panto the other night, we dropped by Trafalgar Square, where people meet for caroling every night now. The square always looks lovely at night, and in the clear cold Christmas nights, particularly so.





Not far from Charing Cross, the square is always a meeting place for people, where shows, music events, booths, art installations, and the like can be found year round. Even Nelson's Column becomes part of the event.



This night the caroling took place under the traditional Norwegian Christmas Tree. Since 1947, a Norwegian spruce has been donated annually from Oslo, the capital of Norway as thanks for Britain's support during World War II.
