The Mall, a road in the City of Westminster, between Buckingham Palace at its western end and Trafalgar Square. It started as a field for playing pall-mall, a game similar to croquet. It is a monumental promenade used for ceremonial purpuoses. The surface of The Mall is coloured red to give the effect of a giant red carpet leading up to Buckingham Palace.
