皇后广场（英语：Queen's Square）是澳洲新南威尔士州雪梨中区的一座公众广场，位于京街与菲腊街及麦觉理街的交界处，南边以圣占士道及亚厘毕亲王道为界。
概述[编辑]
围绕皇后广场，从北顺时针方向依次为新南威尔士州最高法院、雪梨铸币局[1][2]、获联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产的海德公园军营[3][4]、注册总署洋楼[5]、海德公园[6]、圣公会圣雅各堂[7]及雪梨法学院。除最高法院及雪梨法学院外，这些建筑都已列入文物名录，大多建于18世纪及19世纪。
维多利亚女皇铜像矗立在广场西南角，面向北边的最高法院。亚厘毕亲王铜像矗立在东南角，面向麦觉理街对面的女皇像。
因靠近最高法院及议会大厦，此地常有示威活动。
圣占士站位于广场南侧的地下，可经由圣占士道下方的行人隧道抵达。[8]
历史[编辑]
19世纪初，纽修威省总督麦觉理规划在此地建造公众广场。广场初名为英皇广场（King's Square），1837年随维多利亚女皇登基更名为皇后广场。[9]1888年，纽修威省总督夫人卡灵顿勋爵夫人为女皇像揭幕，以庆祝澳洲百年国庆。女皇像位于一圈道路的中间，沿路曾有环形电车轨道。[9]1970年代末，最高法院大楼建成后，京街在夹菲腊街处终止，菲腊街与麦觉理街之间的京街路段成为广场的一部分。[10]
