Piccadilly Circus: Neon, Statues & Theatres

Piccadilly Circus is London’s billboard-filled crossroads — a jumping-off point for theatreland, Regent Street shopping and late-night snacks.

What to See

• The Screens: Iconic LED facades that light up the square.
• Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain: Often (incorrectly) called Eros — it’s actually Anteros.
• Regent Street Curve: A grand sweep of Portland stone and arcades.

Nearby

Chinatown dumplings, Leicester Square cinemas, and West End theatres minutes away on foot.

Tip: For a calmer photo, come just after sunrise or very late at night when traffic thins.
