In KS1 Geography, children learn that famous landmarks are special places that help us recognise countries and cities. They use simple maps and pictures to match landmarks to their locations.

  • Landmark: A well-known place or building that helps people recognise an area, such as a tower, bridge, or statue.
  • Monument: A special building or statue, often made to remember an important person, event, or part of history.
  • Map: A drawing that shows where places are, helping us find countries, cities, rivers, and landmarks.
