The Arc de Triomphe stands in the centre of the Place Charles de Gaulle (originally named Place de l’Étoile), at the western end of the Champs-Élysées. There is also a smaller arch, the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, which stands west of the Louvre Museum. In the prolongation of the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, a new arch, the Grande Arche de la Défense, was built in 1982, completing the line of monuments. And that’s how perfect Paris is!

O Arco do Triunfo localiza-se no centro da Place Charles de Gaulle (originalmente Place de l’Étoile), na extremidade oeste da Avenue des Camps-Élysées. Há ainda um arco mais pequeno, o Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, que se localiza a oeste do Museu do Louvre. No prolongamento da Avenue des Champs-Élysées, um novo e maior arco, o Grande Arche de la Défense, foi construido em 1982, completando assim o alinhamento dos três monumentos. E isto é quão perfeita Paris é!
This is my favourite piece of architecture in Paris! 😀
I love your Arc de Triomphe photo! My daughter and I were enthralled with the view and being at the arc in the midst of the traffic. There were banners in the colors of the French flag flying in the arc when we were there, which made a nice contrast with the stone. Love the video too! Great choice!
You do a great job of sourcing the videos, and your posts are always very fun to receive 🙂

Love La Duree and L’arc de triomphe… Unfortunately La Duree got burnt. However there is one near Blvd madelaine…
Went up on the Arc when we were in Paris…great view! I miss Paris 😦
I like Arc the Triomphe and I would enjoy driving in his round, it’s huge. 😉
Great photo! We’ve never been able to take a good picture of the Arc de Triomphe
Thank you! All the cars make it difficult, actually
Moi, I like the small “arc” at the other end the best! Don’t you. We always walk through it.
It is really beautiful too, you’re absolutely right 😉
It is indeed perfect! Great photo and great video – do you help produce the videos?
Thanks! No, those are just videos I found and thought were worth sharing
