From the city's second landmark, Napoleon's Arc de Triomphe, one has an overview of the Champs-Elysées and eleven other avenues.
The Arc de Triomphe, 50 m high and almost as wide, at the upper end of the Champs Elysées, honours Napoleons victories. One can see twelve avenues converging here star-shaped, and enjoy a great view of the city.

Amazing, incredible, so worth seeing, also Paris' Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
unbedingt hoch gehen, genialer Blick über die Stadt aus 56 m Höhe. Meisst ohne lang anstehen
maravillosa vista
There's no shortage of giant arches in Western Europe, but this one in Paris anchoring Les Champs-Élysées might just take the cake.
This iconic Parisian landmark is worth a visit, although it's most spectacular from the middle of the road. Try to get a photo from here if you can.
Climbing the 284 stairs to the top of the Arc de Triomphe pays off: standing in the middle of the Place d'Étoile you'll get an exceptional view of the starshaped avenues, which your eyes can follow until the horizon. And for those who aren't impressed by the view: watching the traffic chaos on the Place d'Étoile is kind of amusing.
war vor drei Wochen dort. herrliche Sicht über Paris und das mit Eifelturm. immer wieder beeindruckend.
very neat
You need to see Francisco De Miranda
The big Arc de Triomphe was a homage from Napoleon Bonaparte to his invincible army though the Emperor was removed and he died and never saw the colossal monument finished. The Arc de Triomphe is one of the most spectacular buildings in Paris.
You HAVE to watch the suset from up there! So beautiful, you'll feel like crying!
coming up from the metro stairs and seeing the Arc de Triomphe is... wow!
A giant arch next to the Champs-Elysées
A must visit place in Paris!
right in between the louvre and the champs elysées, the arc de triumpf provides an amazing aura of the napolean era!
