city squares
Public gathering places
City squares are open public spaces in urban areas, typically paved and surrounded by buildings.
They serve as gathering places, often featuring monuments, fountains, or gardens.
Historic city squares anchor civic life—markets, protests, festivals, and daily socializing happen there.
We met in the city square before the concert.
Major examples include Times Square, Red Square, and Tiananmen Square.
