Arc de Triomphe - views

by OrlandoBR - last update: Dec 2, 2002

As seen from outer space...

These 12 Avenues converge in a perfectly traced circle, and that's why it's called the "star", or Place de l'Étoile (Charles de Gaulle).

Back here on Earth...

This is the elegant Avenue Foch, between the Arc and the Bois de Boulogne (but keep away from that park, there are some *creepy* figures hanging out there!!)

Two arms of the star

The green spot at the end of the avenue to the left is the Parc Monceau.

L'Avenue des Champs-Elysées

 The worst hotel. It isn'tas shown on photos and video. Cubicle, smelly rooms, rude staff. Front desk was not allowed to call a shuttle to airport because they only sell Air France bus. Stay in somewhere else to avoid wasting your money
