LONDON， Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- Trafalgar Square in the heart of London was packed to capacity Tuesday as Britain's capital city welcomed their Olympic and Paralympic heroes.


The celebrations on a sunny afternoon came after almost 200，000 people Monday lined the streets of Manchester to cheer almost 400 members of the British athletes for their success in the Rio games.


Major road closures were put in place in streets around Trafalgar square as people started to arrive early to get a grandstand view of the event.


A large screen was set up nearby to enable those unable to get into the square to watch live coverage of the event.


The world famous military musicians from the Queen's Band of the Grenadier and Coldstream Guards gave the crowds a musical welcome.
