Piccadilly Circus is a road junction and public space of London's West End in the City of Westminster. It was built in 1819 to connect Regent Street with Piccadilly. In this context, a circus, from the Latin word meaning "circle", is a round open space at a street junction. Piccadilly Circus is the entertainment center of London, like Times Square/Broadway in New York. Always busy with great people, and with exciting shopping experience too!
