At the Arc
de Triomphe, pass the long lines and head immediately to the top of the

A unique
viewpoint. From the top of the panoramic terrace, your eyes sweep over the

The
revisited Antiquity. Architect Jean-François Chalgrin was inspired by the Roman
Arch of Titus in a single arch, but went beyond it by exceptional dimensions
(about 50 m high, 45 m long and 22 m wide) and abandoning columns.
A key place
of major national events. Wanted by Napoleon in 1806, the Arc de Triomphe was
inaugurated in 1836 by French king, Louis-Philippe, who dedicated it to the
armies of the Revolution and the Empire. The Unknown Soldier was buried at the
base of the arch in 1921. The flame of remembrance is rekindled every day at
18:30.

de Triomphe, head to the Port de la Bourdonnais subsequent to the Eiffel Tower.

impressive day
We had breakfast first. It was a breakfast where I felt like a complete french. Then we went for a ride on the Sen river. We visited the Arc de Triomphe the next day. We admire the bird's eye view of Paris from the top of the Arc de Triomphe. We had a really productive two days. We love it!!!
