Belgrave Square, Garden square in Belgravia, London, United Kingdom

The square measures 650 feet across and features four white stuccoed terraces with eleven to twelve houses on each side of the perimeter.

The construction of this grand square began in 1826 under Thomas Cubitt and architect George Basevi for the 2nd Earl Grosvenor's estate development.

Multiple statues decorate the square, including representations of Christopher Columbus, Simon Bolivar, Jose de San Martin, and Prince Henry the Navigator.

The private communal garden spans 2 hectares, containing mature trees, gravel walks from 1854, and tennis courts for residents' recreation.

Several international diplomatic missions occupy buildings around the square, including the Portuguese Embassy and the Ghana High Commission.
