Definitely my favourite place in the city centre. I usually go there in the night and enjoy the soothing sound of the water dropping from the fountain. If you are a tourist, you definitely need to check the Town Hall Square. It's true that it's located right in the middle of the city, but it's a peaceful haven for me when I feel burdened or sad. The changing colours of Town Hall tower are just amazing to watch, the pigeons that come to drink from the fountain, the little garden in there ... it's just beautiful. It's the place that will always remimd me of Leicester if I leave it one day. Also, you can grab a bite from nearby restaurants and sit in the chairs there and just enjoy the view. I usually buy shawarma wraps from the Shawarma place which is right behind the Town Hall and sit in the Square to enjoy my food. I definitely recommend this place for visitors 🖤🖤🖤

Leicester Town Council accepted on 29 October 1878, "a handsome ornamental fountain to be placed in the centre of the land fronting the Town Hall Buildings" which was a gift to the Borough from Sir Israel Hart, a former Mayor of Leicester. It's constructed of bronze-painted cast iron, Shap granite and Ross of Mull granite. Francis Hames, the architect of the town hall, also designed the layout of Town Hall Square and the fountain, which was unveiled by Sir Israel Hart on 24 September 1879. A lovely place to sit and have lunch while doing some people watching!

Located in the heart of the city centre, Town Hall Square Fountain is a delightful spot for everyone. I recently visited and was impressed by the beautiful water feature. The fountain's design creates a mesmerizing display of water gushing in and out, captivating both kids and adults alike. The surrounding open space is perfect for children to run around, burn off energy, and enjoy the fresh air.

So calm n friendly atmosphere. Love to sit here n watch people’s activities. A lot of stories going on if u read around. Pigeons flying around n making the atmosphere more beautiful. On top of the beautiful burning sky colours. Just amazing. Had spent couple of hours there to meditate myself. This place is always busy because of Town Hall which is located right in the middle of city.

A very beautifully designed fountain! and all around this place is quite unique and nicely looking. Town hall is located near fountain and it have it's own unique, Integrated small "Big-Ben" like (if you will)- Clock Tower :) if you guys will visit Leicester so this is the must place to visit, and it's quite old historically!
