2000 square metres of turf would cover the square for two days to promote green villages in city under the Visit London's campaign. The turf was sourced from the Vale of York.
As we were already in China Town, we decided to drop over at the square to have a look at the rare sight of greeneries in London... and we saw this.
It was amazing to see that a small patch of grass would attract such a massive crowd! Makes me wonder how deprived Londoners are of greeneries...
We decided to join the crowd on the grass to enjoy the long-waited sunny weather in London.
When the weather is sunny, and when there is some greens to relax on, we can definitely see some bottles of beer in the scene as well. These guys below sure know how to enjoy a picnic.
We hang around there, looking at random people, watching the sunset, and just chilling out. As the blazing sun went down, the whole square was bathed in golden light...
Here are some people riding on the magnificent lion, enjoying the sunset.
I looked up and saw Nelson's column in golden glow, reflecting the beautiful sun rays.
As we were leaving the square, we saw a peculiar pagoda! On closer look, we realized it was actually the church under construction. It was very interesting how the construction work produced an illusion that transformed the church into a eleven-storey high pagoda. (And it looks good too!)
For comparison, this is how the church looks like originally...
That's a nice little trip to a GREEN Trafalgar Square. If only it can be green all year long...
