Paris - Place de la Concorde to the Arc de Triomphe

To start an iconic walk down one of Paris' most iconic streets, start off at the Place de la Concorde and walk down Avenues des Champs-Elysees towards the Arc de Triomphe.  Remember to wear comfortable shoes!  There's plenty to see and do (shop!) in between.  Place de la Concorde is the biggest public square in Paris in the midst of beautiful architecture, fountains, views towards the Arc and Eiffel Tower, with the Luxor Obelisk in the center.

The view as you step out of the Metro.  Wow.


Luxor Obelisk.



View down Avenue des Champs-Elysees.  


Take a break and have a macaron!  They're absolutely scrumptious at Lauduree!



At the end... the Arc de Triomphe.


Be sure to check out all your favorite high end retail stores on the Avenue, they truly go all out with the interior design and showcasing the goods.
