Arc de Triomphe
Arc de triomphe is a famous monument at the end of de Champs-Élysées. The Arc de triomphe is older then the Eiffel Tower yet quit new in compared to other victory arches over history. It honors the soldiers fought for France mostly during the Napolean war.
Many pictures are taken from the Arc de triomphe both from the ground as from the top of the Arc de Triomphe, you will have a great view over the Champs-Élysées from there. A traffic circle surrounds the Arc de triomphe, when accessing the Arc de triomphe do no try to cross the traffic circle but take the underground tunnel instead.
The Champs-Élysées is the widest and well known street of Paris. It’s a boulevard lined with countless restaurants, cafés and stores. The rent at the Champs-Élysées is the highest in Paris, perhaps that is why they ask a lot for drinks and food as well. Every year the tour de France has its last meters at the Champs-Élysées.
