Paris, Heaven for Foodies and Heiratage Lovers - Arc de Triomphe

Arc de Triomphe is a money-saving choice to overlook the whole city view of Paris for its admission fee is included in the Museum Pass and it is located at the centre of the city. The birth of this monument was to commemorate the victories brought by Napoleon.

















Received greeting the Eiffel Tower, the highest building in the city after climbing up 273 stairs. It's a good challenge to one lack of exercise.

















Basilique du Sacré Coeur is located on a hill, which is another ideal place to overlook Paris.

















Les Invalides where showcases history and information of military.

















Musée du Louvre.

















The eternal flame of Tomb of Unknown Solider burns in memory of the soldiers scarified in both World War I and II.

















The Arc de Triomphe, ogether with another two arcs draws a straight line in the city. The one on the left is Arc de Triomphe Carrousel which was also a trophy to commemorate the glories of Napoleon. The one on the right is La Défense Grande Arche, a 20th century version of the Arc de Triomphe. However, it is for humanity rather than military victories.
