Piccadilly Circus
@solofemaletravel
Piccadilly Circus was originally built back in 1819 to connect Regent Street with Piccadilly. It’s now called Piccadilly Circus because circus comes from the latin word circle, referring to the round, open space at a street junction. This busy square is right in the heart of London.
