Flat Stanley now is at Trafalgar Square. The tall statue behind him is called "Nelson's Column" because the statue on top is of Lord Nelson, who won the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. Nelson is protected by four lions at the base of his column.Lots of times, Trafalgar Square is used for people to celebrate things. For example, people gather here every New Year’s Eve and when London was named the Olympic Host City for the 2012 Olympics, they had a big rally here.
The big building with the dome behind him is the National Gallery, which is filled with beautiful paintings. The church over his left shoulder is called St.Martin in the Field’s.
