Know a little bit about Arc de Triomphe:
In 1806, just after the Battle of Austerlitz, Napoleon I declared to his soldiers, "you will march home through arches of victory." But at the end was the return of Napoleon I's ashes in 1840.
The view on the top of the arch is SUPER nice, you should go up, if you visit there. No point just take pictures at the bottom. And also have some exhibition inside the arch.
Entrance to the top is €9.00, Student or under 26 is €5.50.
Honestly, I was standing in the middle of the street to take this picture!!
Arc de Triomphe
The pictures show you the way you going up. First, go up with the stairs from the right then reach the middle of the arch, after that access to the top, then go down with the stairs from the left.
These are the stairs to go up to the top.
The model of the arch.
The following pictures are the view from the top:
The most famous street in Paris, Avenue des Champs-Elysees.
The 4 sculptures on the pillars.
