Arc de Triomphe, Paris, France


Arc de Triomphe Detail
Originally uploaded by Martin Callum.
After visiting La Defense on the West side of town, we took the Metro to Arc de Triomphe. From here we took a leisurely stroll down the Champs Elysees, a shopping haven, but not for those on a small budget. At the end of Champs Elysees, is the Place de la Concorde with an obelisk from Luxor, Egypt, addorning the centre.
Our walk continued through the Jardin des Tuileries with a fountain in the centre and children playing with wooden, patchwork sailboats. We reached the Louvre and decided we had done enough walking and took the train back to Juvisy. *Mush and Stub
